Is the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) meeting today's finance and
technology needs? Is the code exploding or imploding? The
Massachusetts Bar Association is proud to co-sponsor
the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) Conference, which will
feature leading national authorities on current issues bearing upon
the scope of the UCC's article 2 (sales) and the application of
article 9 (secured transactions). The panelists will discuss
related bodies of law, including the American Law Institute's
Principles of the Law of Software Contracts.
The article 2 panel, beginning at 1 p.m., will discuss attempts
to revise article 2, contracts for the development and transfer of
software, bankruptcy claims and defining electricity as a
"good."
The article 9 panel, beginning at 3:15 p.m., will discuss recent
amendments to article 9, recent commentary issued by the
Permanent Editorial Board for the Uniform Commercial Code and
the intersection of articles 9 and 3 with real property law
pertaining to foreclosures.
