Buyer Status Under The U.C.C: A Suggested Temporal Definition, David Frisch

Law Faculty Publications

This Article attempts two different but complementary tasks. First, it offers an answer to the "by no means academic question" asked above. In so doing, the Article considers Code rules that affect the buyer-seller relationship and those that impact on the interests of third parties. The conclusion reached is that buyer status occurs at the moment the purchaser obtains the remedial right to the goods vis-a-vis the seller.
