The Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) is a model statute covering things such as the sale of goods, bank transactions, warranties, loans secured by personal property and certain other commercial matters. All states have adopted and adapted the entire UCC, with the exception of Louisiana, which only adopted parts of it. Uniform Commercial Code ?§ 2-315 provides that where the seller at the time of contracting has reason to know any particular purpose for which the goods are required and that the buyer is relying on the seller's skill or judgment to select or furnish suitable goods, there is unless excluded or modified an implied warranty that the goods shall be fit for such purpose.
Where a tender has been accepted, the buyer must within a reasonable time after he or she discovers or should have discovered any breach, notify the seller of breach or be barred from any remedy. The giving of the notice is a condition precedent to a claim or suit for breach of the sales contract. UCC ?§ 2-607(3)(a) was amended in 2003 to provide that failure to give timely notice of breach in the case of accepted goods bars a remedy only to the extent that the seller is prejudiced by the untimely notice.
