Fall term, Block H
M 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM
Professor George G. Triantis
2 classroom credits LAW-90815A
This seminar will look at a range of commercial contracts and the law that governs them (principally under the Uniform Commercial Code). The range of contract includes sales of goods, distributorship contracts, franchises, payment mechanisms (such as promissory notes, checks and credit card payments), letters of credit, and lending contracts. We will examine contracts used in the real world and academic articles addressing legal issues raised by these contracts. Each student will be responsible for writing a paper and presenting her/his work-in-progress in class.
