Ucc Update: Revised Articles 3 And 4, Michael D. Sabbath

Mercer Law Review

The National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws and the American Law Institute, cosponsors of the Uniform Commercial Code ("UCC"), have approved comprehensive changes to Articles 3 and 4. The Revised Articles were initially presented to the various states for approval in early 1991. As of September 1996, forty-four jurisdictions have adopted the Revised Articles, most with few, if any, variations to the official text.'Revised Articles 3 and 4 became law in Georgia effective July 1, 1996.

Few debate that Prior Articles 3 and 4, which were drafted more than forty years ago, were in need of revision. Article …

Commercial Law, Robert A. Weber Jr.

Mercer Law Review

Commercial law is "the whole body of substantive jurisprudence ... applicable to the rights, intercourse, and relations of persons engaged in commerce, trade, or mercantile pursuits." Of course, an article on commercial law that used this statement to define its coverage would be completely unsuitable for a survey. The Author instead relied on Georgia's Commercial Code to determine the body of law to review in this Article and, accordingly, structured it in a similar fashion.

This Article covers case law and statutory amendments from June 1, 1994, through May 31, 1996. The review of Article 9 caselaw includes decisions by …

The Single Publication Rule: One Action Not One Law, Debra R. Cohen

Journal Articles

Recovery in one action under one state's law for violation of the right of publicity-the right to control the commercial use of one's identity-arising out of multistate publication2 seems to be the trend of the nineties. When Samsung ran a nationwide print advertisement for VCRs depicting a robot dressed to resemble her, Vanna White sued for violation of her right of publicity.3 Under California law she recovered $403,000. 4 When a SalsaRio Doritos radio commercial imitating Tom Waits's distinctive raspy and gravelly voice aired nationwide, he sued Frito Lay for violation of his right of publicity.5 Under California law he …

On The U.C.C. Revision Process: A Reply To Dean Scott, David Frisch

Law Faculty Publications

This Article takes account of the forces that shape revisions of the commercial law and notes the relationship between those forces and the tenor of the resulting codification; Part II peruses Scott's thesis. It responds to his criticism of the UCC drafting and revision processes and describes how uniform commercial law Jurisprudence reveals the incongruities in his analysis. Part III tests Scott's conclusions about private legislatures by considering the realist Jurisprudence of the UCC and compares the UCC's "private legislature" (PL) commercial law to the commercial- law product of a "public legislature," the Bankruptcy Code promulgated by the United States …
