Bankruptcy Preferences-Secured Transactions-Security Interest In After-Acquired Property Is Voidable Preference If Received Within Four Months Of Bankruptcy-In Re Portland Newspaper Publishing Co., Michigan Law Review

Michigan Law Review

In an effort to provide employment for several hundred workers who had lost their jobs in an unsuccessful strike against Portland's two largest newspapers, the local printers' unions and several civic leaders organized the Portland Reporter Publishing Co. (Reporter) to publish a rival newspaper. The unions also formed the Rose City Development Co. (Rose City), which leased facilities and equipment to Reporter and subsequently made several emergency operating loans to it. These loans were secured by an agreement designating as collateral all of Reporter's previously unsecured accounts receivable, both present and after-accruing. This type of agreement -securing after-acquired property of …

Tennessee Law And The Secured Transactions Article Of The Uniform Commercial Code, Charles H. White

Vanderbilt Law Review

The Uniform Commercial Code in its treatment of personal property security represents a sincere and conscious effort on the part of its draftsmen, authors and sponsors to update and modernize commercial law so as to be able to keep abreast of today's space-age economy. It is submitted that once a familiarity with the new terms,concepts, and theories is acquired, the average practitioner should not encounter any serious difficulty operating under the Uniform Commercial Code and will, in all probability, discover that in most instances the ideas are the same, although perhaps a little hard to recognize at first examination.

Financing The Dealer's Inventory, Robert G. Lawson

Law Faculty Scholarly Articles

The principle objective of inventory financing is to provide the dealer with a line of credit to carry on his business. To achieve this objective, it is necessary that the dealer have power to sell the collateral, and to apply the proceeds to the purchase of other goods. Since a sale of the callateral by the dealer to a bona fide purchaser destroys the creditor's security interests in those goods, he obviously will not permit such disposition unless given protection in some other way. Therefore, to satisfy the demands of both the dealer and the financier, the security instrument must …

The Lazy Lawyer's Guide To Secured Transactions Under The Code, Peter F. Coogan

Michigan Law Review

It is expected that few, if any, who can really qualify as "lazy lawyers" will read this paper. There is, however, an obvious need for a reasonably simple statement which a young Iawyer, for example, may find helpful in explaining article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code to the partners in his firm, or a lender's lawyer may use in explaining the essentials of article 9 to a borrower's counsel who has only occasional contact with secured transactions-- or, in either case, vice versa.

If we could assume that our learner had absolutely no knowledge of article 9, we could …

Recognition Of New Types Of Negotiable Instruments, Ralph W. Aigler

Articles

“The expression ‘negotiable instrument’ is one of variable meaning, and what is meant thereby often can be determined only by the context… Primarily ‘negotiable’ indicates transferability with a certain facility…..

“It may be not without interest to consider how instruments gain the negotiable quality and to trace, sketchily perhaps, the process of recognition.”

The Negotiable Instruments Law With Annotations, Robert E. Bunker

I submit the result of my work -- undertaken in the hope that it might help the profession and the bankers and the business men in dealing with this statute -- to all who may …
