Uniform Commercial Code (UCC)

Download PDF version of guide for print

I. What is the UCC?

The Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), a comprehensive code addressing most aspects of commercial law, is generally viewed as one of the most important developments in American law. The UCC text and draft revisions are written by experts in commercial law and submitted as drafts for approval to the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws (referred to as the Uniform Law Commissioners ), in collaboration with the American Law Institute. The Commissioners are all attorneys, qualified to practice law, including state and federal judges, legislators and law professors from throughout the United States and its territories. These quasi-public organizations meet and decide whether to endorse the drafts or to send them back to the experts for revision. The revision process may result in several different revisions of the original draft. Once a draft is endorsed, the Uniform Law Commissioners recommend that the states adopt these rules.

The UCC is a model code , so it does not have legal effect in a jurisdiction unless UCC provisions are enacted by the individual state legislatures as statutes. Currently, the UCC (in whole or in part) has been enacted, with some local variation, in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.

II. Organization of the UCC

The rules for each of the transactional areas covered by the UCC are collected into separate parts called an "Article." Each Article is then arranged systematically  as consecutively numbered parts based upon subtopics.

As of this guide's last update, the types of transactions included within the Code are:

• Sales (Amended Article 2);
• Leases (Amended Article 2A);
• Negotiable Instruments, previously known as Commercial Paper (Revised Article 3);
• Bank Deposits and Collections (Amended Article 4);
• Funds Transfers (Article 4A);
• Letters of Credit (Revised Article 5);
• Bulk Sales, previously known as Bulk Transfers (Revised Article 6);
• Documents of Title (Revised Article 7);
• Investment Securities (Revised Article 8); and
• Secured Transactions (Revised Article 9).

Article 1 of the Code contains a set of general provisions equally applicable to all subsequent articles. Articles 10 and 11 contain provisions for effective dates, repeals and transitional matters.

The primary sources for UCC research are:

• the Code itself;
• the Official Comments of the UCC Permanent Editorial Board (PEB);
• the Permanent Editorial Board Commentaries; and
• judicial opinions which interpret and apply the Code, as enacted in a particular state.

Besides the text of the Code itself, the Official Comments are almost universally treated as the most authoritative sources in the construction of the Code sections. The PEB Commentary was introduced in 1990. It seeks to resolve issues and ambiguities raised by the UCC and Official Comments, to resolve issues on which scholarly and judicial opinion differ, and to elaborate on the UCC’s role in relation to other statutes. Note that some Commentary may be superseded by later Code amendments. Lastly, a substantial body of case law exists on the UCC. UCC litigation occurs in both federal and state courts, including bankruptcy courts, for matters arising under Article 9. Some Articles are less litigated than others, resulting in limited case law for certain Articles.

III. Primary Source Materials

Uniform Civil Code in India: A socio-legal perspective

2016, International Journal of Law and Legal Jurisprudence Studies

Part IV of the Constitution of India provides for the Directive Principles of State Policy. Though these principles are non-enforceable but are indispensable in the governance of the country. One such directive principle is given under Article 44 of the Constitution which creates an obligation on the state to enact a Uniform Civil Code. Over the years various directions have been issued by the Supreme Court for its implementation. But, due to excessive politicization, it is still a distant dream. In the absence of a uniform law regarding personal matters like marriage, divorce, adoptions, etc., various personal laws are applicable to different religious communities. These laws find their source and authority in their religious texts and customs which provides for gender discriminatory practices. The paper aims to achieve a balance between Right to Freedom of Religion and Right to Equality by segregating the 'essential religious practices' and 'secular activities'.The need of the hour is to enact a Uniform Civil Code but that should be done slowly and gradually after making the people especially the minorities, aware about its scope and extent.

Article 44 of the Constitution mandates implementation of uniform civil laws in matters of marriage, divorce, maintenance, inheritance, succession and adoption. But the enactment of this Code is hindered: firstly, by virtue of it being a non-binding Directive Principle of State Policy; secondly, by the zealous resistance of critics who cite the compromise of religious identities of minorities. This leads to overlooking objectivity and pragmatism during fervent deliberations on the Code. To safeguard religious identity, women are denied a variety of rights intrinsic to every individual. Therefore, fact must be extricated from fiction for any purposeful deliberation on the Code. This paper argues that implementation of Article 44 poses no threat to religious identities and practices. Instead, it can be a tool to secure gender equality. This study is undertaken in the light of, and with special reference to, existing gender discriminatory practices under Muslim personal law.

Atish Chakraborty1 " Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere "-Martin Luther King Part IV of the Indian Constitution provides for Directive Principles of State Policy. Though these principles are guidelines and are not enforceable in a court of law however they are indispensable in the governance of the country. One such directive principle is given under Article 44 of the Constitution which creates an obligation on the state to enact a Uniform Civil Code. Various directions have been issued by the Apex Court for its implementation however, due to excessive politicization in our country it is still a distant dream. In the absence of a uniform law regarding personal matters like marriage, divorce, adoption etc., various personal laws are applicable to different religious communities who reside in our country. These laws find their source and authority in their religious texts and customs which provides for gender discriminatory practices in all forms and often is biased towards males than that of females. This paper aims at achieving a balance between Right to Freedom of Religion and Right to Equality by segregating the 'essential religious practices' and 'secular activities'. Thus one can say that the need of the hour is to enact a Uniform Civil Code but that needs to be done slowly and gradually after making the people especially the minorities, aware about its scope and extent as well as their rights

'Women's right' are the rights and entitlement that are claimed for gender equality and empowerment, these rights are varied in different culture. India's regime of distinct personal laws, which discriminate women in their personal life in various ways due to religion based personal laws and this discrimination on the base of religion, is injurious to public morals. To uplift women's condition and for equality, it is imperative to push for uniform principles of gender justice and individual freedom, that can be achieved by making gender just set of family law. This paper is an attempt to understand vulnerability in available social and family structure for women and also reflecting the social condition of women in India.

International Res Jour Managt Socio Human

The conception of Uniform Civil Code in India is a term mentioning to an primary Civil Law Code. The Uniform Civil Code brings the idea of the same set of civil rules for the citizens irrespective of their religion, caste, creed etc. Civil law administers the matters relating to marriage, adoption, inheritance, succession and so on. India has adopted the concept of secularism and thus such matters of the citizens are still governed by the personal laws of their respective group of peoples. It’s the mandate upon the state as a directive principle of state policy to propagate a Uniform Civil Code for the whole country. But even after 67 years of independence, it is just a distant vision leading to various doubts in the illumination of personal laws.

Eastern Crescent

Muhammad Burhanuddin Qasmi

The enactment of UCC will be in the teeth of various other articles of the Indian Constitution including the Fundamental Rights, strongly enshrined in articles 25, 26 and 29. An effort to make changes in the Muslim Personal Laws has always been considered an interference in the religion and religious practices by the Muslim Indians, thus it is totally against the constitutionally guaranteed fundamental rights. A Directive Principle cannot and must not abrogate any of the Fundamental Rights which will go against the basic principle of the Indian Constitution – decorated in its Preamble and it will also go against the illustrated democratic values of India’s ‘unity in diversity’ culture.

Tanja Herklotz

The topic of religion-based personal laws in India has been looked at from many perspectives: secularism, modernity, national unity and integration, community identity, religious freedom and the right to equality. The gender dimension has only featured recently as a topic and has mainly been discussed by feminist scholars and women's rights activists. This review essay attempts to look at the topic through a gender lens. It engages with recent literature that links the personal laws and the debate around the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) to the issue of women's rights. The books under review demonstrate the discriminatory aspects of the personal laws and point to possible solutions. They outline the interpretation of the personal laws by the Indian higher judiciary and other social actors and place the topic in the larger regional context.

India is a secular (Panthnirpeksha) democratic republic Rashtra. The Constitution of India guarantees equality to all the citizens irrespective of religions, gender, caste, and class differences. In this article I discuss about Article 44 of the Indian Constitution, which ensures the Uniform Civil Code. The government of India has done many efforts to implement the essence of the Uniform Civil Code in India. This code is related with the notion of equality. For example Hindu marriage Act 1955, Hindu Succession Act 1956 and the recently triple Talaq Bill were passed in parliament to ensure gender equality and democratic liberal principles. In this article, I will discuss why the Uniform Civil Code is necessary in India.
