402.723  Proof of market price: time and place.

(2) If evidence of a price prevailing at the times or places described in this chapter is not readily available the price prevailing within any reasonable time before or after the time described or at any other place which in commercial judgment or under usage of trade would serve as a reasonable substitute for the one described may be used, making any proper allowance for the cost of transporting the goods to or from such other place. (3) Evidence of a relevant price prevailing at the time or place other than the one described in this chapter offered by one party is not admissible unless and until that party has given the other party such notice as the court finds sufficient to prevent unfair surprise.History:  1991 a. 316.

WI Stat § 403.105 (2021)
2021 Wisconsin Statutes & Annotations|Chapter 403 - Uniform commercial code — negotiable instruments.|403.105 - Issue of instrument.

403.105  Issue of instrument. (1) “Issue" means the first delivery of an instrument by the maker or drawer, whether to a holder or nonholder, for the purpose of giving rights on the instrument to any person. (2) An unissued instrument, or an unissued incomplete instrument that is completed, is binding on the maker or drawer, but nonissuance is a defense. An instrument that is conditionally issued or is issued for a special purpose is binding on the maker or drawer, but failure of the condition or special purpose to be fulfilled is a defense. (3) “Issuer" applies to issued and unissued instruments and means a maker or drawer of an instrument.History:  1995 a. 449.
WI Stat § 403.106 (2021)
2021 Wisconsin Statutes & Annotations|Chapter 403 - Uniform commercial code — negotiable instruments.|403.106 - Unconditional promise or order.

403.106  Unconditional promise or order. (1) (a) Except as otherwise provided in this section, for the purposes of s. 403.104 (1), a promise or order is unconditional unless it states any of the following:1. An express condition to payment.2. That the promise or order is subject to or governed by another writing.3. That rights or obligations with respect to the promise or order are stated in another writing.(b) A reference to another writing does not of itself make the promise or order conditional. (2) A promise or order is not made conditional by a reference to another writing for a statement of rights with respect to collateral, prepayment or acceleration or because payment is limited to resort to a particular fund or source. (3) If a promise or order requires, as a condition to payment, a countersignature by a person whose specimen signature appears on the promise or order, the condition does not make the promise or order conditional for the purposes of s. 403.104 (1). If the person whose specimen signature appears on an instrument fails to countersign the instrument, the failure to countersign is a defense to the obligation of the issuer, but the failure does not prevent a transferee of the instrument from becoming a holder of the instrument. (4) If a promise or order at the time that it is issued or first comes into possession of a holder contains a statement, required by applicable statutory or administrative law, to the effect that the rights of a holder or transferee are subject to claims or defenses that the issuer could assert against the original payee, the promise or order is not thereby made conditional for the purposes of s. 403.104 (1); but if the promise or order is an instrument, there cannot be a holder in due course of the instrument.History:  1995 a. 449.

403.110  Identification of person to whom instrument is payable.

The instrument is payable to the person intended by the signer even if that person is identified in the instrument by a name or other identification that is not that of the intended person. If more than one person signs in the name or behalf of the issuer of an instrument and all of the signers do not intend the same person as payee, the instrument is payable to any person intended by one or more of the signers. (2) If the signature of the issuer of an instrument is made by automated means, such as a checkwriting machine, the payee of the instrument is determined by the intent of the person who supplied the name or identification of the payee, whether or not authorized to do so. (3) A person to whom an instrument is payable may be identified in any way, including by name, identifying number, office or account number. For the purpose of determining the holder of an instrument, the following rules apply:(a) If an instrument is payable to an account and the account is identified only by number, the instrument is payable to the person to whom the account is payable. If an instrument is payable to an account identified by number and by the name of a person, the instrument is payable to the named person, whether or not that person is the owner of the account identified by number.(b) If an instrument is payable to:1. A trust, an estate or a person described as trustee or representative of a trust or estate, the instrument is payable to the trustee, the representative or a successor of either, whether or not the beneficiary or estate is also named.2. A person described as agent or similar representative of a named or identified person, the instrument is payable to the represented person, the representative or a successor of the representative.3. A fund or organization that is not a legal entity, the instrument is payable to a representative of the members of the fund or organization.4. An office or to a person described as holding an office, the instrument is payable to the named person, the incumbent of the office or a successor to the incumbent. (4) If an instrument is payable to 2 or more persons alternatively, it is payable to any of them and may be negotiated, discharged or enforced by any or all of them in possession of the instrument. If an instrument is payable to 2 or more persons not alternatively, it is payable to all of them and may be negotiated, discharged or enforced only by all of them. If an instrument payable to 2 or more persons is ambiguous as to whether it is payable to the persons alternatively, the instrument is payable to the persons alternatively.History:  1995 a. 449.

(2) Interest may be stated in an instrument as a fixed or variable amount of money or it may be expressed as a fixed or variable rate or rates. The amount or rate of interest may be stated or described in the instrument in any manner and may require reference to information not contained in the instrument.

(2) Subject to sub. (3), if an incomplete instrument is an instrument under s. 403.104, it may be enforced according to its terms if it is not completed, or according to its terms as augmented by completion.

If the notice states that the person notified may come in and defend and that failure to do so will bind the person notified in an action later brought by the person giving the notice as to any determination of fact common to the 2 litigations, the person notified is so bound unless after seasonable receipt of the notice the person notified does come in and defend.History:  1995 a. 449.

(1) An instrument is transferred when it is delivered by a person other than its issuer for the purpose of giving to the person receiving delivery the right to enforce the instrument. (2) Transfer of an instrument, whether or not the transfer is a negotiation, vests in the transferee any right of the transferor to enforce the instrument, including any right as a holder in due course, but the transferee may not acquire rights of a holder in due course by a transfer, directly or indirectly, from a holder in due course if the transferee engaged in fraud or illegality affecting the instrument. (3) Unless otherwise agreed, if an instrument is transferred for value and the transferee does not become a holder because of lack of endorsement by the transferor, the transferee has a specifically enforceable right to the unqualified endorsement of the transferor, but negotiation of the instrument does not occur until the endorsement is made. (4) If a transferor purports to transfer less than the entire instrument, negotiation of the instrument does not occur. The transferee obtains no rights under this chapter and has only the rights of a partial assignee.History:  1995 a. 449.
