Bankruptcy
Bankruptcies reflect details about public records filed in US federal, county, and local courts.
The bankruptcy attributes include only the most recent public record for a Place. Public records impact a Place's creditworthiness.
Bankruptcy Sources
Information is received daily and refreshed using PACER, an electronic public access service with case and docket information from Federal Appellate, District and Bankruptcy courts, and from the US Party/Case Index.

Uniform Commercial Code Filings (UCC)
The Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) is a standardized set of laws and regulations divided into nine articles, each with separate aspects of banking and loans. Data Axle’s UCC database is compiled monthly from Secretary of State sites and focuses on Article 9, covering secured transactions.
UCC filings include recent and historical filings, up to 100 filings per place. Each debtor has one UCC filing for each secured party involved in the filing. When the debtor is the only party on a UCC filing, there is one record and the secured party fields are empty.
Data Axle does not compile UCC filings from Kansas, Minnesota, and Washington.
