Further Evidence Of Discrimination In New Car Negotiations And Estimates Of Its Cause, Ian Ayres
Further Evidence Of Discrimination In New Car Negotiations And Estimates Of Its Cause, Ian Ayres
Michigan Law Review
A 1991 test of new car dealerships in Chicago indicated that dealerships offered significantly lower prices to white male testers than to similarly situated black and-or female testers: white female testers were asked to pay 40% higher markups than white male testers; black male testers were asked to pay more than twice the markup of white male testers; and black female testers were asked to pay more than three times the markup of white male testers. This article extends the results of this initial test by presenting not only more authoritative evidence of discrimination but also a new quantitative method …

Contracts, Conditions, And The Clayton Act: Causes Of Action Available To A Dealer Injured By An Exclusive-Dealing Arrangement, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
It is the purpose of this Comment to re-examine two of the three requirements of section 3 of the Clayton Act-with particular emphasis on the sale-or-contract-for-sale requirement-in an attempt to determine whether the formidable obstacle that judicial interpretation has made of these requirements is consistent with either the letter or spirit of the section. In discussing these requirements, this Comment will only consider the rights of parties who have at one time made purchases from a seller who utilizes exclusive-selling arrangements.
Uniform Commercial Code--Sales--Sections 2-508 And 2-608--Limitations On The Perfect-Tender Rule, Michigan Law Review
Uniform Commercial Code--Sales--Sections 2-508 And 2-608--Limitations On The Perfect-Tender Rule, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
Section 2-601 of the UCC gives a buyer of goods a right to reject for any nonconformity to the contract specifications. While this section essentially codifies the "perfect tender" rule of pre-Code sales law, it expressly limits that rule by referring to section 2-612, which pertains to installment contracts, and sections 2-718 and 2-719, which allow contractual limitations on remedies. Moreover, other provisions in the Code have the effect of restricting the perfect-tender concept. This Note will examine how the courts have applied two such sections-2-508 and 2-608-to protect the interests of buyers and sellers after tender.

Ucc--Secured Transactions--Judicial Sales--Purchaser At Judicial Sale Takes Property Subject To Unperfected Security Interest Of Which He Has Knowledge, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
p>The first question for consideration is the applicability of the "shelter provision" of section 2-403(1) to these cases. This section may be relied upon by different parties depending upon the nature of the sale. When a bankruptcy sale is involved, the buyer may claim, as Armstrong did in Mitchell, that the section allows him to succeed to the trustee's priority over unperfected security interests. When an ordinary judicial sale is involved, however, there is no intermediate transferee with both title to the property and a clear claim to priority, and the secured party may rely on this section …

Extension Of Liability Of Abstracters, Harry R. Trusler
Extension Of Liability Of Abstracters, Harry R. Trusler
Michigan Law Review
The General Rule.- In 1900 a standard encyclopedia said: "By the weight of authority an abstracter is liable only to the person ordering and paying for the abstract; and where this view obtains, the fact that an abstracter has knowledge that his abstract is to be used in a sale or loan to advise a purchaser or person about to lend money does not affect the rule as to his liability. In some jurisdictions, however, the abstracter's liability has been extended to protect those who, relying on the correctness of the abstract, are injured."
