Download or read book Problems and Cases on Secured Transactions written by James A. Brook and published by Aspen Publishing. This book was released on 2023-09-15 with total page 720 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brook & Rowley’s Problems and Cases on Secured Transactions provides an updated problem-based approach to teaching and learning Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code. Using a problem-based approach, Brook & Rowley’s Problems and Cases on Secured Transactions 4th Edition engages students with imaginative scenarios while providing an accessible and manageable approach to personal property secured transactions, without avoiding the intricacies of UCC Article 9 or de-emphasizing its interplay with other UCC articles, selected state non-UCC law, or federal bankruptcy law. Designed for a standalone Secured Transactions course, but adaptable to other configurations, the book presents UCC Article 9 as completely comprehensible, even enjoyable, rather than as arcana that only an insider can be expected to understand. Cases have been thoughtfully selected and edited, and the authors’ textual discussion helps connect the cases to the problems and explores the materials’ practical (and practice-oriented) relevance. A good mix of shorter and longer problems gives each chapter a focused flow while frequently recurring characters and basic fact patterns help to reinforce how the lessons of each chapter build onto the more comprehensive whole mapped out in prior and upcoming chapters. Earlier problems lean more heavily, though not exclusively, on the individual and consumer-borrower situations. As the lessons advance, the mix of materials progressively includes more small-business and large-business transactions. New to the Fourth Edition: New co-author Keith A. Rowley brings a quarter century of experience teaching Secured Transactions, augmented by insights gained over nearly two decades of active involvement in the ABA Business Law Section and during his tenures as a Uniform Law Commissioner and as an elected member of the American Law Institute, in which capacity he actively consulted on the 2010 Amendments to UCC Article 9 and made several contributions to the 2022 UCC Amendments, which span the entire Code. New cases that replace statutorily obsolete or judicially superseded ones included in the prior edition or that augment cases carried over from the prior edition. Extensively edited and judiciously augmented textual materials. Extensively edited and judiciously augmented chapter problems. Corrected, replaced, and supplemented end-of-part multiple-choice review questions. Brief discussion of the 2022 UCC Amendments (which have only been adopted in a handful of states), as they relate to pre-amendment UCC Article 9. Professors and students will benefit from: Simple, straightforward organization of chapters and of material within each chapter that makes it easy to tailor assignments according to differing class credits and to the individual instructor’s coverage preferences. Textual introductions, direction to particular statutory sections and comments, and thoughtfully edited cases designed to focus student attention on the issues at hand. Interesting and engaging problems that encourage the students to prepare answers before class discussion, allowing the student to continually monitor their understanding of the topic being covered. Recurring characters and basic fact patterns help students to more readily bridge from one topic to the next and see the bigger picture of UCC Article 9 and how each chapter contributes to better appreciating that picture. Review Questions (with answers) at the end of each Part of the book that helps students gauge their comprehension of and facility with the material discussed over several chapters and help professors meet new ABA formative assessment requirements.

Download or read book A Practical Guide to Commercial Real Estate Transactions written by Gregory M. Stein and published by American Bar Association. This book was released on 2016 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For proven guidance and techniques for handling a commercial real estate deal, this practical guide will help you negotiate and close the deal. The authors cover each step of a real estate transaction in the order in which it generally arises, and offers pertinent advice, practice comments, and sample forms throughout. Because much of the real estate lawyer's practice revolves around transactional documents, the book's chapters emphasize the drafting, negotiation, and revision needed to get a deal closed. Written by a law professor and two real estate practitioners, this book offers a useful combination of text overview and practice pointers. It helps lawyers with less experience navigate through the maze of steps involved in a real estate transaction. At the same time, it serves as a valuable reference for more seasoned attorneys as well as those whose practice is concentrated in other areas of the law. Downloadable forms are available online.

Book excerpt: Renowned environmental and natural resource legal scholar Christine Klein is joined by Shannon Roesler, the Charlotte and Frederick Hubbell Professor of Environmental and Natural Resources Law at the University of Iowa College of Law, on the third edition of Property: Cases, Problems, and Skills. This comprehensive casebook combines the core, doctrinal elements of a 1L Property course with larger, more nuanced social, environmental, and ethical perspectives.

Download or read book Routledge Handbook of Contemporary Issues in Expropriation written by Frances Plimmer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-09-18 with total page 641 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of Contemporary Issues in Expropriation reviews the contemporary major issues involving expropriation (eminent domain/compulsory purchase) in an international context. Expropriation is a right reserved to all governments, and, thus, it has an impact on all societies. This book, the first of its kind, considers the essential issues from the point of view of both developing and developed countries, and their needs for major infrastructure projects. The content covers major issues, principles and policies and includes the experiences of and examples from different countries and regions, including Australia, Asia, China, Europe, India and the USA. Rather than providing an in-depth examination of individual countries’ legal systems, the book focuses on international issues, and also provides a reflection on how national experiences can be related to global needs. Key themes include: Nature and quantum of compensation • Land rights and the acquisition of traditional land rights • Issues surrounding ‘public interest’ •Alternatives to expropriation •The future: “good practice”, debate and reform. This handbook is an essential resource for students and researchers in the areas of land policy, land law, property law and rights, and international development.
