Section 96.41 - Procedure upon Refusal

(a) If the filing officer finds grounds under § RSA 96.40 of this title to refuse acceptance of a transition property notice, the filing officer shall return the document, if written, to the Remitter and may return or refund the filing fee. A refund may be delivered with the returned document or under separate cover.

(b) The document shall be accompanied by a notice that contains the date and time the document would have been filed had it been accepted for filing (unless such date and time are stamped on the document); and a brief description of the reason for refusal to accept the document for purposes of filing and that cites the provision of § RSA 96.40 of this title that establishes the ground for refusal. The notice shall be sent to the Remitter, whether or not the document or another writing contains a request that an acknowledgment copy be sent to a financing party or another person. The notice shall be sent no later than the second business day after the filing office receives the document.
