2021 Tennessee Code|Title 46 - Cemeteries|Chapter 7 - Trusts for Perpetual Care of Private Cemeteries|§ 46-7-101. Legislative Intent

  The general assembly recognizes that the operation of a cemetery is a public purpose and further recognizes that the proper maintenance of a cemetery or burial grounds, whether private or public, is in the interest of the public health and safety serving a valid public purpose.   A trust created for the perpetual care or improvement of a cemetery or graves lessens the burden of government and, therefore, is found and declared to be a charitable trust. To that end, the general assembly declares its support for the establishment and formation of a trust corporation to act as trustee of a charitable trust for the perpetual care of private cemeteries.

2021 Tennessee Code|Title 46 - Cemeteries|Chapter 8 - Family Burial Grounds Protection|§ 46-8-103. Duty to Protect Graves or Crypt — Disturbances Prohibited — Transfer of Remains

  A deed for real property that indicates the presence of a gravesite or crypt containing human remains on the property conveyed obligates the immediate and future buyer or buyers of the property to protect the gravesite or crypt from disturbance. The owner of real property has the responsibility for taking appropriate action, prior to conveying the property, to ensure that the deed reflects the presence of the gravesite or crypt on the property.   Real property that has a deed that reflects the presence of human remains on the property is protected from disturbance or development as follows:  A gravesite may not be disturbed in the area of ten feet (10') surrounding the perimeter of the gravesite; and   A crypt may not be disturbed in the area of five feet (5') surrounding the perimeter of the crypt.     The owner of real property that has a deed that reflects the presence of human remains on the property has the option of transferring the remains, at the owner's expense, pursuant to the procedure for termination of use as a cemetery in chapter 4 of this title. However, prior to filing any action in chancery court to transfer the remains located in a gravesite or crypt, the proponent of the action shall first publish a notice in a newspaper of general circulation within the county in which the gravesite or crypt is located. The notice shall include the name of the proponent of the action, the location of the property where the remains are located and any name that can be discerned from the site of any person there interred. Upon complete transfer of all human remains from the property that are properly described on the deed, the buyer has the right to the use of the area previously containing the remains as is consistent for the remainder of the property.

2021 Tennessee Code|Title 47 - Commercial Instruments and Transactions|Chapter 5 - Letters of Credit|§ 47-5-101. Short Title

 This article may be cited as Uniform Commercial Code — Letters of Credit.
TN Code § 47-5-103 (2021)
2021 Tennessee Code|Title 47 - Commercial Instruments and Transactions|Chapter 5 - Letters of Credit|§ 47-5-103. Scope

  This article applies to letters of credit and to certain rights and obligations arising out of transactions involving letters of credit.   The statement of a rule in this article does not by itself require, imply, or negate application of the same or a different rule to a situation not provided for, or to a person not specified, in this article.   With the exception of this subsection, subsections (a) and (d), §§ 47-5-102(a)(9) and (10), 47-5-106(d), and 47-5-114(d), and except to the extent prohibited in §§ 47-1-302 and 47-5-117(d), the effect of this article may be varied by agreement or by a provision stated or incorporated by reference in an undertaking. A term in an agreement or undertaking generally excusing liability or generally limiting remedies for failure to perform obligations is not sufficient to vary obligations prescribed by this article.   Rights and obligations of an issuer to a beneficiary or a nominated person under a letter of credit are independent of the existence, performance, or nonperformance of a contract or arrangement out of which the letter of credit arises or which underlies it, including contracts or arrangements between the issuer and the applicant and between the applicant and the beneficiary.
TN Code § 47-5-104 (2021)
2021 Tennessee Code|Title 47 - Commercial Instruments and Transactions|Chapter 5 - Letters of Credit|§ 47-5-104. Formal Requirements

TN Code § 47-5-105 (2021)
2021 Tennessee Code|Title 47 - Commercial Instruments and Transactions|Chapter 5 - Letters of Credit|§ 47-5-105. Consideration

TN Code § 47-5-106 (2021)
2021 Tennessee Code|Title 47 - Commercial Instruments and Transactions|Chapter 5 - Letters of Credit|§ 47-5-106. Issuance, Amendment, Cancellation, and Duration

  A letter of credit is issued and becomes enforceable according to its terms against the issuer when the issuer sends or otherwise transmits it to the person requested to advise or to the beneficiary. A letter of credit is revocable only if it so provides.   After a letter of credit is issued, rights and obligations of a beneficiary, applicant, confirmer, and issuer are not affected by an amendment or cancellation to which that person has not consented except to the extent the letter of credit provides that it is revocable or that the issuer may amend or cancel the letter of credit without that consent.   If there is no stated expiration date or other provision that determines its duration, a letter of credit expires one (1) year after its stated date of issuance or, if none is stated, after the date on which it is issued.   A letter of credit that states that it is perpetual expires five (5) years after its stated date of issuance, or if none is stated, after the date on which it is issued.
TN Code § 47-5-107 (2021)
2021 Tennessee Code|Title 47 - Commercial Instruments and Transactions|Chapter 5 - Letters of Credit|§ 47-5-107. Confirmer, Nominated Person, and Adviser

  A confirmer is directly obligated on a letter of credit and has the rights and obligations of an issuer to the extent of its confirmation. The confirmer also has rights against and obligations to the issuer as if the issuer were an applicant and the confirmer had issued the letter of credit at the request and for the account of the issuer.   A nominated person who is not a confirmer is not obligated to honor or otherwise give value for a presentation.   A person requested to advise may decline to act as an adviser. An adviser that is not a confirmer is not obligated to honor or give value for a presentation. An adviser undertakes to the issuer and to the beneficiary accurately to advise the terms of the letter of credit, confirmation, amendment, or advice received by that person and undertakes to the beneficiary to check the apparent authenticity of the request to advise. Even if the advice is inaccurate, the letter of credit, confirmation, or amendment is enforceable as issued.   A person who notifies a transferee beneficiary of the terms of a letter of credit, confirmation, amendment, or advice has the rights and obligations of an adviser under subsection (c). The terms in the notice to the transferee beneficiary may differ from the terms in any notice to the transferor beneficiary to the extent permitted by the letter of credit, confirmation, amendment, or advice received by the person who so notifies.
TN Code § 47-5-109 (2021)
2021 Tennessee Code|Title 47 - Commercial Instruments and Transactions|Chapter 5 - Letters of Credit|§ 47-5-109. Fraud and Forgery

  If a presentation is made that appears on its face strictly to comply with the terms and conditions of the letter of credit, but a required document is forged or materially fraudulent, or honor of the presentation would facilitate a material fraud by the beneficiary on the issuer or applicant:  the issuer shall honor the presentation, if honor is demanded by:   the issuer, acting in good faith, may honor or dishonor the presentation in any other case.     If an applicant claims that a required document is forged or materially fraudulent or that honor of the presentation would facilitate a material fraud by the beneficiary on the issuer or applicant, a court of competent jurisdiction may temporarily or permanently enjoin the issuer from honoring a presentation or grant similar relief against the issuer or other persons only if the court finds that:  the relief is not prohibited under the law applicable to an accepted draft or deferred obligation incurred by the issuer;   a beneficiary, issuer, or nominated person who may be adversely affected is adequately protected against loss that it may suffer because the relief is granted;   all of the conditions to entitle a person to the relief under the law of this state have been met; and   on the basis of the information submitted to the court, the applicant is more likely than not to succeed under its claim of forgery or material fraud and the person demanding honor does not qualify for protection under subsection (a)(1).      a nominated person who has given value in good faith and without notice of forgery or material fraud;   a confirmer who has honored its confirmation in good faith;   a holder in due course of a draft drawn under the letter of credit which was taken after acceptance by the issuer or nominated person; or   an assignee of the issuer's or nominated person's deferred obligation that was taken for value and without notice of forgery or material fraud after the obligation was incurred by the issuer or nominated person; and
