welcome BREAKING NEWS NGF CONTACTS SOS OVER ERRORS TO LIEN SEARCH DATA BASE The Nebraska Grain and Feed Association (NGF) recently contacted the Nebraska Secretary of State’s (SOS) office bringing to their attention complaints received from several NGF member firms that have been experiencing past and persistent mistakes in the lien search database which they subscribe to and receive from the SOS on a quarterly basis.

In one instance, a member firm has reported that there were seven banks which have either changed names and/or ownership in his area since 2000 but are still being listed under their previous names. There were also instances where “lien holders” identified under the lien search database have been out of business for as long as seven years.
