    Protecting Consignors' Interests and Rights to Recover Property

    A NEW YORK LAW JOURNAL SPECIAL SECTION Corporate Restructuring & Bankruptcy WWW. NYLJ.COM MONDAY, JUNE 22, 2015 Protecting Consignors’ Interests And Rights to Recover Property BY CARREN B. SHULMAN onsignment is an arrangement between two parties for one to sell the goods C of another. If the goods are sold, a dis- counted sales price is paid to the original seller with the balance to the buyer/con- signee. Many retail industries have used consignment for years, but many are mov- ing towards consignment. Other industries have used consignment and consignment-like relationships, such as “conditional sales.”1 In this uncertain economy, consignment is realizing a resurgence and may be an effec- tive cost saving measure for vendors/con- signees. This article addresses the law on consignment and how consignors protect themselves. Consignment is governed by Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC). §9-109(a)(4). Consignment is defined in UCC §9-102 as: a transaction, regardless of its form, in which a person delivers goods to a mer- chant for the purpose of sale and: (A) the merchant (i) deals in goods of that kind under a name other than the name of the person making delivery; aggregate value of the goods is $1,000 ship rights. To the extent the consignment (ii) is not an auctioneer; and or more at the time of delivery; relationship fails sections (B) or (C) above, there may be a consignment relationship, (iii) is not generally known by its credi- (C) the goods are not consumer goods but it may not be governed by Article 9.
