Certainty, Efficiency, And Realism: Rights In Collateral Under Article 9 Of The Uniform Commercial Code, Margit Livingston Oct 1994

Certainty, Efficiency, And Realism: Rights In Collateral Under Article 9 Of The Uniform Commercial Code, Margit Livingston

Margit Livingston

Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code requires that the debtor have "rights in the collateral" for the attachment of a security interest. The drafters, however, left the determination of the phrase's meaning to the courts. This article argues that the requirement of "rights in the collateral" is unnecessary as it relates to tangible goods and should be deleted from Article 9. As an alternative to the uncertainty engendered by the phrase, the article proposes substituting a set of notice and priority rules that more clearly define the rights and obligations of the parties undertaking an Article 9 transaction involving …


United Nations Commission Of Experts Established Pursuant To Security Council Resolution 780, M. Bassiouni Sep 1994

United Nations Commission Of Experts Established Pursuant To Security Council Resolution 780, M. Bassiouni

M. Cherif Bassiouni

Throughout modern history, there have only been three internationally established commissions to investigate war crimes and prepare for eventual prosecutions before international and national judicial bodies: the 1919 Commission on the Responsibilities of the Authors of the War and on Enforcement of Penalties for Violations of the Laws and Customs of War (1919 Commission), the 1943 United Nations War Crimes Commission (UNWCC), and the Commission of Experts established pursuant to Security Council Resolution 780 (1992) to investigate violations of international humanitarian law in the former Yugoslavia (Commission of Experts). Even though there are no connections among the three bodies, there …


Thomas Hobbes's "A Discourse Of Laws", Noel B. Reynolds Aug 1994

Thomas Hobbes's "A Discourse Of Laws", Noel B. Reynolds

Noel B Reynolds

The recent discovery that an anonymously published 1620 essay was an early writing of Thomas Hobbes invites investigation of his early thinking. Hobbes relied on mostly classical sources to advance a basically conventionalist theory of law and to anticipate twentieth century analyses of the principles of rule of law such as those made famous by F. A. Hayek and Michael Oakeshott.

What Has Happened To The Common Law? -- Recent American Codifications, And Their Impact On Judicial Practice And The Law's Subsequent Development, Mark Rosen Feb 1994

What Has Happened To The Common Law? -- Recent American Codifications, And Their Impact On Judicial Practice And The Law's Subsequent Development, Mark Rosen

Mark D. Rosen

The Article documents that the general failure of the nineteenth century movement to codify American common law has given way to a quiet piecemeal codification over the past seventy five years. The Article assesses the consequences of this large-scale shift from common law to code. While the jurisprudential concerns voiced by opponents of codification in the nineteenth century (that codification would strip judges of necessary discretion and freeze growth of the law) have not materialized, the recent American codes have shaped the law's subsequent evolution in several critical respects. For one, the Article shows that unarticulated, non-axiomatic views of human …
