Legal Question in Business Law in District of Columbia
Contract Law in DC
I have a contract that is governed by the laws of the District of Columbia. I need to know if DC's contract law is governed by the UCC, it's own laws, or are there variations to the UCC that DC uses? If it has it's own law or variations to the UCC how do I find out what they are? Thanks for you help.

DC Contract/UCC
DC has enacted the UCC, but that doesn't meanthat your contract is governed by it. Not all contracts fall within the UCC. The DCUCC, like in each other state, has changes from the uniform version. If you have particular questions, please feel free to ask.The DC Code is not available on the 'net, butyour local law library may have it.
