Written by the Reporters who drafted UCC Article 9 and its Official Comments, this casebook focuses on real-life problems and transactions. The Problems focus the students’ attention on the relevant statutory language and its application to common patterns of secured financing. They emphasize counseling, planning, drafting, and litigation skills. Many of the Problems are based upon two Prototype transactions that feature actual transaction documents. One Prototype provides the foundation for a discussion of basic Article 9 concepts. The other forms the basis for financing secured by receivables and other intangible property and inventory. The extensive Notes help students understand what Article 9’s provisions are designed to accomplish and how they fit together, while encouraging students to evaluate the choices made by the drafters. The Sixth Edition fully integrates the 2010 amendments and reflects recent developments in the case law, including the Motors Liquidation and Duckworth opinions dealing with the sometimes drastic consequences of mistakes made by secured parties.

With CasebookPlus, you can customize your students’ learning experience and monitor their performance. The quiz editor allows you to create your own custom quiz set, suppress specific quiz questions or quiz sets, and time-release quiz questions. Additionally, the flexible, customized reporting capability helps you evaluate your students’ understanding of the material and can also help your school demonstrate compliance with the new ABA Assessment and Learning Outcomes standards.

While continuing the emphasis on real-life transactions and disputes that has distinguished these teaching materials from others in the field, the Sixth Edition has been updated and refined. There are four new principal cases, including the Second Circuit’s opinion in Motors Liquidation; the most recent amendments to Article 9 have been fully integrated into the Notes and Problems; the Notes have been streamlined and revised to reflect case-law developments; and the Problems have been tailored and are even more focused—all with a view towards making the book more student- and teacher-friendly.
