Indiana § 26-1-12-104 - Rights of purchaser and qualifying purchaser in controllable accounts, controllable payment intangibles, and controllable electronic records; filing of financing statement ineffective as notice of claim of property right in controllable electronic record

§ 26-1-12-104. Rights of purchaser and qualifying purchaser in controllable accounts, controllable payment intangibles, and controllable electronic records; filing of financing statement ineffective as notice of claim of property right in controllable electronic record

Sec. 104. (a) This section applies to the acquisition and purchase rights in a controllable account or a controllable payment intangible, including the rights and benefits under subsections (c), (d), (e), (g), and (h) of a purchaser and a qualifying purchaser, in the same manner that this section applies with respect to a controllable electronic record.

(b) For purposes of determining whether a purchaser of a controllable account or a controllable payment intangible is a qualifying purchaser, the purchaser obtains control of the account or the payment intangible if the purchaser obtains control of the controllable electronic record that evidences the account or the payment intangible.

(c) Except as provided in this section, law other than this chapter determines:

(1) whether a person acquires a right in a controllable electronic record; and

(2) the right the person acquires.

(d) A purchaser of a controllable electronic record acquires all rights in the controllable electronic record that the transferor had or had the power to transfer. However, a purchaser of a limited interest in a controllable electronic record acquires rights only to the extent of the interest purchased.

(e) A qualifying purchaser acquires the qualifying purchaser's rights in a controllable electronic record free of a claim of a property right in the controllable electronic record.

(f) Except as provided in subsections (a) and (e) with respect to a controllable account or a controllable payment intangible, or in law other than this chapter, a qualifying purchaser takes:

(1) a right to payment;

(2) a right to performance; or

(3) another interest in property;

that is evidenced by a controllable electronic record subject to a claim of a property right in the right to payment, right to performance, or other interest in property.

(g) An action may not be asserted against a qualifying purchaser based on both:

(1) a purchase by the qualifying purchaser of a controllable electronic record; and

(2) a claim of a property right in another controllable electronic record;

regardless of whether the action is framed in conversion, replevin, constructive trust, equitable lien, or another theory.

(h) The filing of a financing statement under IC 26-1-9.1 is not notice of a claim of property right in a controllable electronic record.
