- The passage of the Uniform Commercial Code by the legislature evinced an intent to have that body of law control all commercial transactions. City Dodge, Inc. v. Gardner, 232 Ga. 766, 208 S.E.2d 794 (1974).
- O.C.G.A. § 11-1-102 specifies that the Uniform Commercial Code shall be liberally construed and applied to promote its underlying purposes and policies, one of which, of course, is to broaden within the framework provided the protection of warranties beyond the original notion of privity of contract. Chastain v. Fuqua Indus., Inc., 156 Ga. App. 719, 275 S.E.2d 679 (1980).
Release of an "Assignment of Proceeds from the Sale of Dairy Products" constituted a waiver of the lienholder's security interest in milk products. Thomas v. Ralston Purina Co., 43 Bankr. 201 (Bankr. M.D. Ga. 1984).
- Lender's assignee had no standing to pursue a fraudulent transfer claim against a guarantor because such claims were not assignable under O.C.G.A. § 44-12-24; therefore, the assignee could not prevail on a legal malpractice action against attorneys who failed to timely assert a fraudulent transfer claim. O.C.G.A. § 44-12-24 was not preempted by 12 U.S.C. § 1821 of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA) or by O.C.G.A. § 11-1-103 of the Uniform Commercial Code. RES-GA McDonough, LLC v. Taylor English Duma LLP, 302 Ga. 444, 807 S.E.2d 381 (2017).
- In a dispute over a storage facility's storage of a customer's seed, in which the facility sought to bind the customer to limitations printed on the reverse of the facility's warehouse receipts, the trial court erred by concluding that evidence that the facility routinely mailed warehouse receipts to the facility's customers was sufficient to bind the customer as a matter of law; because the customer denied receiving the receipts, the customer's assent was a question for the jury. Turfgrass Group v. Ga. Cold Storage Co., Ga. App. , 816 S.E.2d 716 (2018).
