Connecticut General Statutes Title 42A. Uniform Commercial Code § 42a-9-805 § 42a-9-805. Effectiveness of action taken before July 1, 2013

(a) The filing of a financing statement before July 1, 2013, is effective to perfect a security interest to the extent the filing would satisfy the applicable requirements for perfection under this article, as amended by public act 11-108.

(b) Public act 11-108 does not render ineffective an effective financing statement that, before July 1, 2013, is filed and satisfies the applicable requirements for perfection under the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in this article in effect on June 30, 2013. However, except as otherwise provided in subsections (c) and (d) of this section and section 42a-9-806, the financing statement ceases to be effective:

(c) The filing of a continuation statement on or after July 1, 2013, does not continue the effectiveness of a financing statement filed before July 1, 2013. However, upon the timely filing of a continuation statement on or after July 1, 2013, and in accordance with the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in this article, as amended by public act 11-108, the effectiveness of a financing statement filed in the same office in that jurisdiction before July 1, 2013, continues for the period provided by the law of that jurisdiction.

(d) Subparagraph (B) of subdivision (2) of subsection (b) of this section applies to a financing statement that, before July 1, 2013, is filed against a transmitting utility and satisfies the applicable requirements for perfection under the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in this article in effect on June 30, 2013, only to the extent that this article, as amended by public act 11-108, provides that the law of a jurisdiction other than the jurisdiction in which the financing statement is filed governs perfection of a security interest in collateral covered by the financing statement.

(e) A financing statement that includes a financing statement filed before July 1, 2013, and a continuation statement filed on or after July 1, 2013, is effective only to the extent that it satisfies the requirements of part 5 of this article, as amended by public act 11-108, for an initial financing statement. A financing statement that indicates that the debtor is a decedent's estate indicates that the collateral is being administered by a personal representative within the meaning of subdivision (2) of subsection (a) of section 42a-9-503, as amended by public act 11-108. A financing statement that indicates that the debtor is a trust or is a trustee acting with respect to property held in trust indicates that the collateral is held in a trust within the meaning of subdivision (3) of subsection (a) of section 42a-9-503, as amended by public act 11-108.
