Regulating commerce between the states was one of the overriding problems facing the drafters of the original U.S. Constitution. Under the Articles of Confederation, regulating such commerce was a significant problem so when the Constitution was being written the following language was incorporated to address the problem. In Article 1, Section 8 the Constitution states:
o regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States,

and with the Indian ribes.

Further, in Article 1, Section 9 the Constitution states:

No ax or Duty shall be laid on Articles exported from any State. No Preference

shall be given by any Regulation of Commerce or Revenue to the Ports of one

State over those of another, nor shall Vessels bound to, or from one State

be obliged to enter, clear, or pay Duties in another.

The things most frequently linked with product liability are negligence, strict liability, breach of warranty, and various consumer protection claims. A warranty is breached when the guarantee is broken or when goods are not as anticipated, at the time the sale takes place, whether or not the defect is obvious. The seller is responsible to make things right by giving a refund or replacement.
It is possible for a seller to disclaim warranties. This is usually done by a statement made by the seller that states that no other warranty is expressed or implied. The UCC covers the scope to which sellers may disclaim definite kinds of warranties such as the warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, or even disclaim all warranties in the case of starting that the goods are sold as is. Seller can specifically disclaim warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular function.….

UCC and NSF Checks
L. Jones

UCC and the Returned Check little wonton money, which burned out the bottom of his purse.

Sir Thomas More (1478-1535), Works

If one thing is sure in this financial world of ours, writing a check sure to bounce is a very bad thing. part from the messy ideas of morality and the duties of the upstanding citizen, it is a dangerous business, indeed, should one indulge in the practice either, willfully, or even mistakenly, yet with noticeable frequency.

In all states, knowingly writing a check with insufficient funds, or, in bank terminology, an NSF check, is a crime. Indeed, over 450 million so called "bounced checks" are written every year (in fact, some check recovery agencies put the number at closer to 700 million), and are the bane of commercial traders and service providers. For this reason, district attorneys countrywide are ready and able to prosecute unscrupulous check writers.

Statute of Limitations for Fraud

This refers to the maximum time legal action may be brought against someone for the commission of a fraud.

This Statute depends on the jurisdiction. Most federal crimes in general have up to 5 years to prosecute. Capital offenses, however, have no Statutes of limitation. Federal frauds carry 10 years Statutes of limitation. These include frauds committed against banks and financial institutions and involving passports or citizenship. Major frauds in the U.S. carry a seven-year limit. Tax frauds have a 6-year limit.

Legal action is usually begun upon the commission or discovery of the fraud.

Alaska, Kentucky and Missouri observe a 10-year limit for fraud. Limit for Alabama is only 2 years and Louisiana, only 1 year after the commission of the fraud.

Like murder and other crimes, fraud can overwhelm a victim's whole life.

Fraud is thus governed by this Statute of Limitations.

The reason for setting a time limit to….

Whitt v Teeter
American Business Legal Environment - American Business law is also known as commercial and corporate law. It governs all business and commercial transactions, but most consider it to be a branch of civil law that has evolved into a more specific level of focus. This form of law governs manufacture and distribution of goods, guarantees, accidents, corporate responsibilities, contracts, hiring practices, and the manufacture and sales of consumer goods. In the United States, unlike some other countries, commercial law is part of the purview of the U.S. Congress and the civil codes that govern laws between the states. This template came about based on needing to establish some sort of legal venue that would transcend individual state's jurisdictions so that goods could be transported between states and still have legal protection (Commercial Law, 2010). Many efforts have been made to create a more unified, "national" code that deals….

10. Damages - defines procedures for reporting, estimating and recovering damages if suffered by any party. This may include penalty payments with a defined upper limit for recovery.

11. Governing Law - defines the location where litigation will occur in the event that a breach of contract suit must be pursued through the court. The Mooters interest: This contract component would have defined Britain or France as the court for litigating recourse and recovery. With regard to the Mooters situation, different jurisdictions and applicable laws apply if this suit progresses to court.

The following contract components could have been included in the Mooters' sales contract; however, given its likely low monetary exposure, these contract components are likely unnecessary.

Contracts, Contract Law, And Society
Contract Law

Contracts are legally-binding agreements between two or more self-regulating parties for the purpose of furthering their commercial goals (Eisenberg, 1994). The elements of contracts, together with the laws that provide protections for the parties involved, are theoretically straightforward and appeal to common sense principles, but in practice the forging of contracts and their enforcement can at times be complex. The theories and principles that underlie contract law also remain somewhat controversial and refractory to unequivocal definitions (Schwartz & Scott, 2003). To gain a better understanding of why contracts are so important to society this essay will review the essential element of contracts and the theories supporting their use, from a social, economic, and legal perspective.

Elements of a Contract

The four basic elements of a contract are: (1) mutual assent, (2) consideration, (3) capacity, and (4) legality (Legal Information Institute, 2010). Mutual assent implies that both parties….

John, 18 and 17 years of age, are best friends during their senior year of High School. Both are going to college and decide to open a lawn care business over the summer to assist in tuition costs. The team sent out flyers to their neighborhood households offering to cut the grass for $20/week. Within a few days they have signed contracts with the Smith and Johnson family to maintain their lawns until September 15. Because of this, the team purchases a new lawn mower on credit from Mower Supply Company. The equipment is purchased in May.
The business is so successful Sam and John acquire more customers and are forced to set up a schedule that requires them to work long hours. Unfortunately, the Johnsons lose their jobs in July and are no longer able to pay Sam and John for lawn services. The team contends, however, that they….

12.4 Unfortunately, I do not feel that, as the situation is worded, Einhorn can sue Seeley. In this situation, there is no implied contract between her and the locksmith. In other words, because she was a third party and only a guest I do not feel she can claim to have a contract with the locksmith and there is no culpability for negligence on the locksmith's part.

12.9 PEPCo cannot maintain the law suit because the contract specifically implied that that the contractor was prohibited from assigning "any moneys due" without the city's approval. "The Contractor shall not assign this contract or any part thereof, or any moneys due or to become due thereunder, without the written prior approval of the Owner. The court….
