Law Faculty Articles and Essays

Part I of this article will discuss "title" holders under the Uniform Commercial Code and the powers and rights that they have to defeat reclaiming sellers. Part II will describe the Code "lessees" and "secured creditors" as well as the powers and rights that they have to defeat reclaiming sellers. Part III will explain how a misreading of the Code has subordinated the reclaiming seller of goods to the Article 9 floating lien creditor. Finally, Part IV will argue that, as the Code drafters intended, the reclaiming seller of goods should prevail over the floating lien creditor.
