Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law of Negotiable Instruments: Including Promissory Notes, Bills of Exchange, Bank Checks and Other Commercial Paper; With the Negotiable Instruments Law Annotated and Forms of Pleading, Trial Evidence and Comparative Tables Arranged Alphabetically by States The importance of the Law of Negotiable Instruments, or the Law of Bills, Notes and Checks, will be realized when it is considered that over ninety percent of the work of paying for and effecting the exchange of interstate commerce is carried on today by means of commercial paper. It has been the endeavor of the author to furnish the practitioner and the student of the law such a practical presentation of the elementary principles of negotiable instruments as may serve, with the aid of its references to judicial decisions, as a complete and convenient guide in this important subject of the law. The law herein set out is the law settled by the authorities rather than the writer's own views. The object has been to enable one readily to find the law of bills, notes and checks in any state or territory in the United States. The peculiarities of the law in those states which have adopted the Negotiable Instruments Law are set forth and all modifications are pointed out. The peculiarities of the law in those states which have not adopted the Negotiable Instruments Law are collected and arranged alphabetically by states. Thus the writer has endeavored to cover the entire field of the law of negotiable instruments, citing cases from every jurisdiction. In the text discussing the elementary principles, the Negotiable Instruments Law is interwoven, distinguished by being printed in italics; the text of the law as printed is that of the New York Act.
