Accordingly, Venable’s contract is controlled by Article 9 (“Uniform Commercial Code - Secured Transactions”; see OCGA § 11-9-101). See OCGA § 11-9-109 (1). It follows that the proper limitation period applicable to Venable’s contract is the six-year statute of limitation codified at OCGA § 9-3-24. The majority’s reliance upon dicta from All Tech Co. v.

Revised Article 9 of the Georgia Uniform Commercial Code (OCGA § 11-9-101 et seq.) governs our analysis.[7] The UCC's statutory framework makes clear that repossession alone is not enough to extinguish the debtor's ownership in the collateral, but that a creditor must go through additional steps after repossession to obtain

Snippet: 134 Ga. App. 73 (213 SE2d 175) (1975). *419 Appellant argues that the signature card contract creates a security interest and lien rather than the right of set-off, thereby requiring adherence to Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, OCGA § 11-9-101 et seq. Appellant is correct in its assertion that a security interest differs from a right of set-off: "`[a] right of set-off is not a security interest ...

The statute at issue in Reeves was OCGA § 11-9-504 (3). That statute is a provision of OCGA § 11-9-101 et seq., which comprises the Secured Transactions Article of our Uniform Commercial Code. Nothing in that Secured Transaction Article applies "to the creation or transfer of an interest in or lien on real estate, including a lease or rents thereunder

Snippet: Appeals. This case comes to us upon certified questions submitted by the Court of Appeals in regard to the efficacy of the appellant's waiver of notice. The "Uniform Commercial Code — Secured Transactions" is found at Chapter 9 of OCGA Title 11. OCGA § 11-9-101 et seq. The provisions concerning default are found in Part 5. OCGA § 11-9-501 et seq. OCGA § 11-9-504 (1) provides that after default a secured party may sell, lease, or otherwise dispose of the collateral. OCGA § 11-9-504 (3) generally requires
