The Bank-Depositor Relationship--A Comparison Of The Present Tennessee Law And The Uniform Commercial Code, John A. Spanogle Jr.

Vanderbilt Law Review

The author examines the relationship of the bank and its deposit or under existing Tennessee law and then points out changes and modifications which would arise under the Uniform Commercial Code. Professor Spanogle notes that many of the problems discussed are not governed by statute in Tennessee and that the case law is unclear in certain areas. This is one of his reasons for recommending the adoption of the Uniform Commercial Code by the Tennessee legislature.

Financing The Dealer's Inventory, Robert G. Lawson

Law Faculty Scholarly Articles

The principle objective of inventory financing is to provide the dealer with a line of credit to carry on his business. To achieve this objective, it is necessary that the dealer have power to sell the collateral, and to apply the proceeds to the purchase of other goods. Since a sale of the callateral by the dealer to a bona fide purchaser destroys the creditor's security interests in those goods, he obviously will not permit such disposition unless given protection in some other way. Therefore, to satisfy the demands of both the dealer and the financier, the security instrument must …

Letters Of Credit—A Comparison Of Article 5 Of The Uniform Commercial Code And The Washington Practice [Part 1], Warren L. Shattuck, Lisle R. Guernsey

Washington Law Review

It is our hope that this discussion will serve a dual purpose: (1) provide a basis for evaluating the desirability of Article 5 and so aid in an over-all evaluation of the Uniform Commercial Code in this period of pre-enactment consideration of the Code's merits, and (2) provide a point of departure for Washington bankers and lawyers who become concerned with letter of credit problems after enactment of the Code. The first of these objectives seems better served if we undertake with each section a critique of its operation in light of the existing practice. This we have done.

Sales—Automobile Warranties, Daniel B. Ritter

Washington Law Review

A defective switch in a new automobile started a fire that destroyed the entire machine. Under the standard warranty given by all automobile manufacturers, the dealer's only obligation was to supply a new switch. By so deciding, Norway v. Root illustrated the worthlessness of the standard warranty. But the importance of the case lies in the Washington court's intimation that it might invalidate disclaimers of implied warranty in automobile sales were the issue squarely presented.

Negotiable Instruments Law Under The Uniform Commercial Code, William O. Morris

West Virginia Law Review

The use of commercial instruments in trade and business dates from antiquity. Wigmore has called attention to the use of a note payable to bearer dating approximately from 2100 B. C. It was not until the 15th and 16th centuries that the use of negotiable instruments became widespread and common. While bills and notes in trade were used before this period, their true importance and common use date from the establishment of the great banking institutions of the continent. The laws relating to negotiable instruments arise from three sources, the law merchant, the common law and the Negotiable Instruments Law …

The Uniform Commercial Code Bulk Sales Article Compared With West Virginia Law, Londo H. Brown

West Virginia Law Review

The gradual adoption of the various uniform laws by the states is beginning to have some effect on the system of "different laws in different states." Perhaps nowhere in the field of law is there greater need for uniform laws in the different states than in commercial law. The Uniform Commercial Code was designed to meet this need, and since 1954 our neighboring state, Pennsylvania, has served as a testing ground for that Code. This report deals with Article 6, Bulk Transfers, of the Uniform Commercial Code. That article, if adopted in West Virginia, would supplant our present Bulk Sales …

The Lazy Lawyer's Guide To Secured Transactions Under The Code, Peter F. Coogan

Michigan Law Review

It is expected that few, if any, who can really qualify as "lazy lawyers" will read this paper. There is, however, an obvious need for a reasonably simple statement which a young Iawyer, for example, may find helpful in explaining article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code to the partners in his firm, or a lender's lawyer may use in explaining the essentials of article 9 to a borrower's counsel who has only occasional contact with secured transactions-- or, in either case, vice versa.

If we could assume that our learner had absolutely no knowledge of article 9, we could …

A General Theory For Measuring Seller's Damages For Total Breach Of Contract, Robert J. Harris

Michigan Law Review

This article is concerned with the legal rules which should govern the process of valuing what plaintiff saved by exercising his power to stop further performance upon notice of defendant's serious breach. Where plaintiff is a "buyer" (whether he buys land, services, personality, or the temporary use of some kind of property), and he was to pay the price in dollars, few difficulties arise in valuing his saved performance. But if he was a "seller" of any of those commodities, valuation is hard. Thus our inquiry is chiefly concerned with cases in which plaintiff is a "seller," not a "buyer."
