The Proposed New Uniform Sales Act, John Barker Waite

Michigan Law Review

A complete Uniform Commercial Code has been formulated by committees acting under joint auspices of the American Law Institute and the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws.

As now tentatively proposed, it comprises presumably complete statutes covering Sales, Commercial Paper, Letters of Credit, Foreign Banking, Documents of Title, Secured Transactions, Investment Securities. If adopted it would displace the present Uniform Sales Act, the Uniform Negotiable Instruments Act, …
