A casebook incorporating foundational materials, questions, and exercises that not only introduce the traditional doctrines of property law, but also provide systematic exposure to other lawyering skills and values—such as problem-solving, client interviewing and counseling, factual investigation, drafting, alternative dispute resolution, ethical issues, preventive lawyering, and professionalism. Detailed and thorough notes provide ample opportunities for focus on these subjects, without the need to sacrifice doctrinal coverage. A comprehensive Teacher’s Manual that provides thorough case summaries and responses to all problems and questions posed in the materials is also available.

This Understanding treatise provides students with an analysis of the underlying rationales of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, the federal Bankruptcy Code as it relates to Article 9, and other relevant state and federal legislation. Familiarity with these rationales is critical for a true understanding of the law of secured transactions. The organization of this text is largely based upon the traditional five-part approach to the law of secured transactions:•   Scope of the article;•   Attachment of security interests;•   Perfection of security interests;•   Priorities among competing claimants (including extensive treatment of the effects of bankruptcy on security interests); and •   Enforcement of security interests.In addition, this treatise explains in practical terms the essential elements of different types of secured transactions, giving students a perspective that is crucial to their ability to understand how Article 9 functions in the real world. For example, it describes the structure and use of financing arrangements that are made possible through such techniques as asset-based securitization, mortgage warehouse lending, terminal and field warehousing, financing of accounts, factoring of accounts, and floor planning, as well as other methods of transacting business. The new Fourth Edition provides case citations to recent judicial opinions interpreting the provisions of revised Article 9. Finally the Fourth Edition provides comprehensive treatment of the interaction between Article 9 and the Bankruptcy Code, fully updated to reflect all changes made by the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005.Entries in the Table of Contents include a descriptive word phrase, along with relevant section numbers of the UCC and the Bankruptcy Code. The Table of Contents does not cite all the provisions that might be relevant, but only the most fundamental provisions relating to the particular topic. This approach should aid students using the book as a supplemental text by enabling them to find the relevant discussion based on either the subject or the basic statutory section numbers. The Index and the Table of Statutes and Authorities enable a more detailed search.

The Fifth Edition was necessitated by a significant set of amendments to revised Article 9 promulgated by the sponsors in 2010. The amendments have been enacted in over half the states, with a deferred effective date of July 1, 2013.

The sixth edition of this clear and concise Understanding treatise thoroughly incorporates and explains the 2022 Amendments to the Uniform Commercial Code. These amendments created a new Article 12 governing the holding and transfer of digital assets such as virtual currencies and non-fungible tokens. Significant portions of Article 9, the main subject of the book, were amended to facilitate the use of these assets as collateral for loans and other obligations. In describing these amendments, this edition explains inherently complex topics related to emerging technologies clearly, so that those without a background in technology may readily understand them. The new edition also expands its coverage of existing concepts, providing numerous examples to help the reader apply legal principles to many different types of commercial finance transactions. The chapter on the effects of bankruptcy on secured transactions has been thoroughly revised and expanded and provides the most comprehensive explanation of that topic available anywhere.
