The Uniform Commercial Code: A Reply to Professor Beutel
Gilmore, Grant
Gilmore, Grant
Abstract
As Beutel tells the old tale, there was once upon a time a National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws which fathered seven Uniform Commercial Acts, one more beautiful than the other. There is also the story about the young girl who was as good as she was beautiful, from whose mouth diamonds fell at every word. Her name was Commercial Law. This lovely maiden had an ugly stepsister, Commercial Code, whose mother was a wicked witch known professionally as the American Law Institute. From the stepsister's mouth there came forth only loathsome toads and reptiles.
