Arizona Secured Transactions Under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code: Forms and Practice Manual
Prominent Arizona attorney Douglas R. Chandler has drawn from his extensive experience to bring you a new edition of this practical, easy-to-use book, containing a comprehensive collection of all the current rules of Article 9, along with extensive commentaries on how they affect the forms and procedures used in Arizona today.
Important features and changes in the most recent update include:
- Introduction, background and summary of the “2022 Amendments” as promulgated by the ULC and ALI, particularly their proposed effect on Money and Virtual Currency as collateral.
- New PEB Commentaries (24, 25, & 26), making a pending draft from 2021 “final” regarding choice-of-law rules, clarifying the necessity for attaching incorporated collateral descriptions in UCC1 filings, and reinforcing the policy of “no rights without remedies”.
- Clarification regarding the characterization of ARS Sections 33-361 and 33-362 as being excepted from Article 9 as landlord’s liens rather than included as agricultural liens.
- Other developments regarding use of Money and Virtual Currency as collateral, under current, un-amended Articles 1 and 9.
- A replacement of Form 17-47, Deposit Account Control Agreement (Alternate).
