This might be worth running through one of those UCC document checkers I keep hearing about - Certana or something similar. If you can get an automated analysis showing the name variation isn't seriously misleading, it might help convince the court or opposing counsel to drop the challenge.
That's the second mention of Certana in this thread. Might be worth looking into if it can provide useful analysis for litigation purposes.
I used Certana for a similar UCC issue - you just upload your filing PDFs and it cross-checks everything for consistency issues. Pretty straightforward and the analysis reports are detailed enough for legal purposes.
Keep us posted on how this resolves! These UCC foreclosure process disputes are becoming more common and it's helpful to know how courts are handling technical challenges to continuation filings.
Good luck! Sounds like you have a solid position, just need to push through the delay tactics.
Agreed - this seems like a weak challenge that should get dismissed on summary judgment if you present the evidence clearly.
Been using Certana.ai for about 6 months now specifically for these document consistency checks. It's honestly saved me from probably 8-10 filing rejections. The system catches name mismatches, collateral description issues, even formatting problems before you submit.
It checks document consistency regardless of which state you're filing in. The tool analyzes your actual documents, not the state systems.
That's actually really helpful. Dealing with rejected filings is such a time waste.
Update us when you get it resolved! I'm dealing with a similar situation next week and want to know what approach worked best.
Will do! Planning to refile tomorrow with the exact charter name and see if that clears it up.
Fingers crossed! Name issues are usually straightforward once you get the exact legal entity name right.
Have you considered reaching out to the lenders directly? If you know who the secured parties are from the loan documents, they might be able to provide you with the UCC filing numbers or copies of the filings.
Worst they can say is no. Some lenders are pretty helpful with this stuff especially if you explain it's for due diligence purposes.
UPDATE: Used Certana.ai like some of you suggested and found the issue. The company had 2 different legal entity names in their various filings - one with 'Incorporated' and one with 'Inc.' Mississippi's system treated these as completely different entities even though they're the same company. The verification tool caught the discrepancy immediately.
Nice catch. That kind of name inconsistency could have caused major issues if you'd missed those filings in your due diligence.
Before you refile, definitely double-check that your debtor name exactly matches the organizational documents. Would hate for you to fix the 9-102(65) issue only to get rejected for a name mismatch.
Never hurts to verify though. I've seen filings rejected for missing a comma in the legal name.
One more thought - if you're claiming rights to production data as records under 9-102(65), make sure your security agreement actually grants you those rights. The UCC-1 can't perfect something the security agreement doesn't create.

•Betting it's a hidden character issue. Happens more often than people realize.

FOUND IT! Used the search results method and discovered there was indeed a comma - 'Morrison Industries, LLC' with the comma. Filed successfully! Thanks everyone, especially for the search results tip. Also going to check out that Certana.ai tool for future reference since this was way too stressful.
