Mississippi MCA law: what actually protects you
Disclosure requirements
Mississippi has not enacted an MCA disclosure law; 2023 bills that would have required disclosures did not pass.
Judgment by confession
Mississippi's confession-of-judgment procedure requires the debtor's acknowledgment before the circuit clerk. Have any confession language in your MCA reviewed.
Is an MCA subject to usury limits?
Mississippi's rate limits vary by borrower and amount, and entity borrowers face limits on raising usury. Most MCA disputes turn on the New York law in the contract.
What this means for Mississippi owners
Mississippi puts procedural hurdles in front of confessions of judgment, so a clause buried in your MCA isn't a shortcut to a judgment the way it can be elsewhere. On the rate side, Mississippi law gives business borrowers little usury protection, so your leverage is more likely to come from the reconciliation clause, documentation of your revenue and a clear plan for each funder.
