1. (1) A "nonstandard" search logic is available on-line through the UCC search site. The "nonstandard" search logic results in a broader listing of debtor names being returned. The results from a "nonstandard" inquiry are not certified and should only be used to determine the name of the debtor for liens filed with the Secretary of State's office.

   1. (a) The "nonstandard" search logic will return debtor names that contain the word(s) reflected in the registered user's search criteria.

   2. (b) The basic "nonstandard" search logic is as follows:

      1. (i) corporate identifiers are ignored. Refer to ARM 44.6.201(5) for list of identifiers ignored;
      2. (ii) punctuation is ignored;
      3. (iii) upper and lower case is ignored;
      4. (iv) spaces are not ignored;
      5. (v) an inquiry limited by city may not reveal all lien filings against the name being searched.
