BUL 2241: Financial Court Case
3. BUL 2241- Module11 - Edward Olford
1. Yes and yes. The bank had a valid security interest in all of Able's equipment, including after-acquired equipment. After-acquired clauses are valid. The only question is whether the bank's security interest could attach to the backhoe. Attachment requires that the debtor has rights in the collateral. This doesn’t necessarily mean that the debtor must own the goods. Ablest had the lawful use and possession of the backhoe, based on his purchase agreement with Myers. He then would have had rights in the backhoe, and as soon as he took possession of it, the bank's security interest would be attached. Because of this, the bank will get the backhoe.
2. No. Northwest’s name was omitted from the financing statement. While small minor omissions are acceptable the court would have said that this was not minor. It’s important that any potential creditors should be able to learn and made aware of all existing creditors. This is especially true where one secured party, Northwest, has a close working relationship with the debtor’s officers, a relationship that may harm other creditors. Even though no one was deceived in this case, the financing statement was still misleading and because of this, Northwest has no security interest.
3. No Sears is not correct. A purchase

It would be reversed. Whayne Supply has a perfected purchase money security intrest in the equipment. UCC code gives Whayne superiority over all other security interests in the equipment, including prior filed security interests. While there is an exception to the general priority rule of UCC §9-312, which provides priority to the first security interest to file or perfect. No rational vendor would sell goods on credit if it were immediately to be relegated to an inferior lien status. There was a drill for the Revenue Cabinet to attempt to seize only because Whayne sold it on credit. Unless the priority is given to PMSI holders than the sales based on credit will

    This provision would preclude sale accounting. UpBeat would maintain too much control over the asset if they had the ability to decide when and if at a fixed price they were going to repurchase the asset. Provision two sounds closer to secured borrowing over sale accounting. UpBeat wants to maintain control and the ability to repurchase at a later date, but does not want the obligation to repurchase at a later date with interest attached that secured borrowing would mean.

    Strike action clearly constitutes a breach of contract. Industrial action short of a strike is less straightforward. This will commonly take the form of a refusal to perform full normal duties. Where these are expressly required by the contract, employees will clearly be in breach. However, the contractual position is less straightforward where such duties are implied into the contract rather than expressly included. In Sim v Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council [1986] IRLR 391, the legality of pay deductions being made depended on whether covering for absent colleagues during school hours was a contractual duty. The court held in this case that the teachers were in breach of their contract. Subsequent to this case, the teacher's pay and conditions document now expressly provides that there is a duty to provide cover for absent colleagues. Other relevant case law is Cresswell and others v Board of Inland Revenue [1986] IRLR 190 and MacPherson v London Borough of Lambeth [1988] IRLR 470. In both these cases, the refusal of employees to operate new equipment was held to be a breach of their contracts. However, refusal to carry out genuinely voluntary duties will not be a breach of contract. For example, a blanket refusal to undertake voluntary overtime will not be a breach of contract. It may, however, amount to industrial action.…
