Attempt to index global 'LM' (a nil value)

I am working on a some code in Lua and I keep getting this error although it is defined.

It is saying that 'LM' is a nil value when it's clearly not as LM = {} is the first thing I have in my code. I am using that table for functions.

LM = {}
LM.Classes = {}
LM.Factions = {}
LM.Items = {}
LM.Core = {}
LM.Ent = {}
LM.GUI = {}
LM.Core.ValidLMEntities = {
                "fm_item",
                "fm_keys",
                "fm_fists",
                "fm_money",
                }

function LM.Core.IsLMEntity(ent)    
    return IsValid(ent) && table.HasValue(LM.Core.ValidLMEntities, ent:GetClass())
end

Error message:

[ERROR]
gamemodes/lemonmuffin/gamemode/sv_core.lua:1: attempt to index global 'LM' (a nil value) 
  1. unknown - gamemodes/lemonmuffin/gamemode/sv_core.lua:1

Try This

LM = {Classes,Factions,Items,Core,Ent,GUI}
LM.Classes = {}
LM.Factions = {}
LM.Items = {}
LM.Core = {}
LM.Ent = {}
LM.GUI = {}

LM.Core.ValidLMEntities = {
            "fm_item",
            "fm_keys",
            "fm_fists",
            "fm_money",
            }

function LM.Core.IsLMEntity(ent)    
     return IsValid(ent) and table.HasValue(LM.Core.ValidLMEntities, ent:GetClass())
end

Take care, you've used && which is not the same as and.
Here's the full list of all Lua non-word tokens (there's no &):

 +     -     *     /     %     ^     #
 ==    ~=    <=    >=    <     >     =
 (     )     {     }     [     ]     ::
 ;     :     ,     .     ..    ...

see Reference Manual for more details.
