Someone please help me with Secured Transactions – I really feel like a daft person here. :-
Roth and Dixon both claim a security interest in the same collateral. Roth’s security interest attached on January 1, and it was perfected by filing on March 1. Dixon’s security interest attached on February 1, and it was perfected on April 1 by taking possession of the collateral. Which of the following statements is true?
A. Dixon’s security interest has priority because Dixon is in possession of the collateral.
B. Roth’s security interest has priority because Roth perfected before Dixon perfected.
C. Dixon’s security interest has priority because Dixon’s interest attached before Roth’s interest was perfected.
D. Roth’s security interest has priority because Roth’s security interest attached before Dixon’s security interest attached.
Does anyone have an easy way to assess which is more important – to Attached first or to Perfect first. I keep seeing questions and going on a merry go round.
FAR 05/27/14; 786/110 - Done !
