Miss. Code Ann. § 75-9-507

Effect of certain events on effectiveness of financing statement

Applied in 2 court decisions — leading case Carter Equipment Company v. John Deere Industrial Equipment Company (1982)

Most recently applied in United States v. Bryant (February 1986)

Former 1972 Code § 75-9-507 [Codes, 1942, § 41A:9-507; Laws, 1966, ch. 316, § 9-507, eff March 31, 1968] is now found in comparable provisions enacted at §§ 75-9-625 and 75-9-62…

A filed financing statement remains effective with respect to collateral that is sold, exchanged, leased, licensed, or otherwise disposed of and in which a security interest or agricultural lien continues, even if the secured party knows of or consents to the disposition.

Except as otherwise provided in subsection (c) and Section 75-9-508, a financing statement is not rendered ineffective if, after the financing statement is filed, the information provided in the financing statement becomes seriously misleading under Section 75-9-506.

If the name that a filed financing statement provides for a debtor becomes insufficient as the name of the debtor under Section 75-9-503(a) so that the financing statement becomes seriously misleading under Section 75-9-506:

(1) The financing statement is effective to perfect a security interest in collateral acquired by the debtor before, or within four (4) months after, the filed financing statement becomes seriously misleading; and

(2) The financing statement is not effective to perfect a security interest in collateral acquired by the debtor more than four (4) months after the filed financing statement becomes seriously misleading, unless an amendment to the financing statement which renders the financing statement not seriously misleading is filed within four (4) months after the financing statement becomes seriously misleading.
