CT Gen Stat § 42a-2A-732 (2020)
2020 Connecticut General Statutes|Title 42a - Uniform Commercial Code|Article 2A - Leases|Section 42a-2A-732 - Effect of acceptance; notice of default; burden of establishing default after acceptance; notice of claim or litigation to person answerable over.

 (a) A lessee shall pay rent in accordance with the lease contract for any goods accepted.(b) Acceptance of goods by a lessee precludes rejection of the goods accepted but does not by itself impair any other remedy provided by this article or the lease agreement for nonconformity.(c) If a tender of delivery has been accepted, the following rules apply:(1) The lessee, or a person entitled to enforce a warranty or warranty obligation, shall notify the party claimed against within a reasonable time after the default or breach of warranty was discovered or should have been discovered. However, a failure to give timely notice bars the lessee from a remedy only to the extent that the party entitled to notice establishes that the party was prejudiced by the failure.(2) Except in the case of a consumer lease, if a claim for infringement or the like is made against a lessee for which a lessor or supplier is answerable over and the lessee is sued as a result of such claim, the lessee shall notify the lessor or supplier within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the litigation or be barred from any remedy over for liability established by the litigation.(d) A lessee has the burden of establishing a default with respect to goods accepted. A person entitled to enforce a warranty obligation under section 42a-2A-508 has the burden of establishing that the warranty was breached.(e) In a claim for breach of a warranty, indemnity or other obligation against the lessee for which another party is answerable over, the following rules apply:(1) The lessee may give notice of the litigation to the other party in a record, and the person notified may then give similar notice of the litigation to any other person that is answerable over. If the notice invites the person notified to intervene in the litigation and defend and states that failure to do so will bind the person notified in any action later brought by the lessor as to any determination of fact common to the two actions, the person notified is so bound, unless, after seasonable receipt of the notice, the person notified intervenes in the litigation and defends.(2) If the claim is one for infringement or the like, the original lessor or supplier may demand in a record that its lessee turn over control of the litigation, including settlement, or otherwise be barred from any remedy over. If the lessor or supplier also agrees to bear all expense and to satisfy any adverse judgment, the lessee is so barred unless, after seasonable receipt of the demand, control is turned over to the lessor or supplier.(f) Subsections (c), (d) and (e) of this section apply to an obligation of a lessee to hold the lessor or the supplier harmless against infringement or the like.(P.A. 02-131, S. 85.)

2020 Connecticut General Statutes|Title 42a - Uniform Commercial Code|Article 2A - Leases|Section 42a-2A-733 - Revocation of acceptance of goods.

 (a) A lessee may revoke acceptance of a lot or commercial unit whose nonconformity substantially impairs its value to the lessee if the lot or unit was accepted:(1) Except in the case of a finance lease, on the reasonable assumption that its nonconformity would be cured and the nonconformity has not been seasonably cured; or(2) Without discovery of its nonconformity if acceptance was reasonably induced either by the lessor's assurances or, except in the case of a finance lease, by the difficulty of discovery before acceptance.(b) Except in the case of a finance lease that is not a consumer lease, a lessee may revoke acceptance of a lot or commercial unit if the lessor defaults under the lease contract and the default substantially impairs the value of such lot or commercial unit to the lessee.(c) If the lease agreement so provides, the lessee may revoke acceptance of a lot or commercial unit because of other defaults by the lessor.(d) A lessee's acceptance must be revoked under subsections (a) and (b) of this section within a reasonable time after the lessee discovers or should have discovered the grounds for it and before any substantial change in condition of the goods which is not caused by their own defects. The revocation is not effective until the lessee notifies the lessor of the revocation.(e) A lessee that justifiably revokes acceptance has the same rights and duties under sections 42a-2A-727 and 42a-2A-728 with regard to the goods involved as if the goods had been rejected.(P.A. 02-131, S. 86.)
CT Gen Stat § 42a-2A-734 (2020)
2020 Connecticut General Statutes|Title 42a - Uniform Commercial Code|Article 2A - Leases|Section 42a-2A-734 - Cover; lessee's acquisition of substitute goods.

 (a) Upon a default by a lessor under the lease contract of the type described in subsection (a) of section 42a-2A-724 or, if agreed, upon other default by the lessor, the lessee may cover by making in good faith and without unreasonable delay any purchase or lease of, or contract to purchase or lease, comparable goods to substitute for those due from the lessor.(b) Except as otherwise provided with respect to damages liquidated in the lease agreement or determined by agreement of the parties, if a lessee's cover is by a lease contract substantially similar to the original lease contract and the new lease contract is made in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, a lessee that covers in the manner required by subsection (a) of this section may recover damages measured by the present value, as of the date of the commencement of the period of the new lease contract, of the rent under the new lease contract applicable to that part of the new lease period which is comparable to the then remaining period of the original lease contract minus the present value as of the same date of the total rent for the then remaining lease period of the original lease contract together with any incidental or consequential damages, less expenses avoided as a result of the lessor's default.(c) If a lessee's cover is by a lease agreement that for any reason does not qualify for treatment under subsection (b) of this section, or is by purchase or otherwise, the lessee may recover from the lessor as if the lessee had elected not to cover, and section 42a-2A-735 governs.(P.A. 02-131, S. 87.)

2020 Connecticut General Statutes|Title 42a - Uniform Commercial Code|Article 2A - Leases|Section 42a-2A-735 - Lessee's damages for nondelivery, repudiation, default and breach of warranty in regard to accepted goods.

 (a) Except as otherwise provided with respect to damages liquidated in the lease agreement or otherwise determined by agreement of the parties, if a lessee elects not to cover or a lessee elects to cover and the cover is by lease agreement that for any reason does not qualify for treatment under section 42a-2A-734, or is by purchase or otherwise, the measure of damages for nondelivery or repudiation by the lessor or for rejection or revocation of acceptance by the lessee is the present value, as of the date of the default, of the then market rent minus the present value as of the same date of the original rent, computed for the remaining period of the original lease agreement, together with incidental and consequential damages, less expenses saved in consequence of the lessor's default.(b) Market rent is determined as of the place for tender or, in cases of rejection after arrival or revocation of acceptance, as of the place of arrival.(P.A. 02-131, S. 88.)

 (a) Except as otherwise agreed, a lessee that has accepted goods and not justifiably revoked acceptance and has given notice pursuant to subsection (c) of section 42a-2A-732 may recover as damages for any nonconforming tender or other default by a lessor the loss resulting in the ordinary course of events from the lessor's default as determined in any reasonable manner.(b) Except as otherwise agreed, a measure of damages for breach of a warranty of quality is the present value at the time and place of acceptance of the difference between the value of the use of the goods accepted and the value if the goods had been as warranted for the lease period, unless special circumstances show proximate damages of a different amount.(c) A lessee may also recover incidental and consequential damages.(P.A. 02-131, S. 89.)

2020 Connecticut General Statutes|Title 42a - Uniform Commercial Code|Article 3 - Negotiable Instruments|Section 42a-3-105 - Issue of instrument.

 (a) “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.(b) 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.(c) “Issuer” applies to issued and unissued instruments and means a maker or drawer of an instrument.(1959, P.A. 133, S. 3-105; 1963, P.A. 526, S. 3; P.A. 91-304, S. 5.)History: 1963 act specified that promise or order is not made conditional by fact that instrument refers to a separate agreement for rights as to prepayment or acceleration in Subdiv. (c); P.A. 91-304 entirely replaced former provisions re unconditional promise or order with provisions re issue of an instrument.See Sec. 42a-3-106(a) and (b)(ii) for successor provisions to Sec. 42a-3-105, revised to 1991, re unconditional promise or order.Cited. 149 C. 159.Notes nonnegotiable because “subject to a subordination agreement dated October 13, 1965” were each transferable or assignable and each was property subject of separate count in one pleading by plaintiff holder upon the default of defendant payor. 6 Conn. Cir. Ct. 28.
CT Gen Stat § 42a-3-106 (2020)
2020 Connecticut General Statutes|Title 42a - Uniform Commercial Code|Article 3 - Negotiable Instruments|Section 42a-3-106 - Unconditional promise or order.

 (a) Except as provided in this section, for the purposes of section 42a-3-104(a), a promise or order is unconditional unless it states (i) an express condition to payment, (ii) that the promise or order is subject to or governed by another writing, or (iii) that rights or obligations with respect to the promise or order are stated in another writing. A reference to another writing does not of itself make the promise or order conditional.(b) A promise or order is not made conditional (i) by a reference to another writing for a statement of rights with respect to collateral, prepayment, or acceleration, or (ii) because payment is limited to resort to a particular fund or source.(c) 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 section 42a-3-104(a). 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.(d) If a promise or order at the time 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 section 42a-3-104(a); but if the promise or order is an instrument, there cannot be a holder in due course of the instrument.(1959, P.A. 133, S. 3-106; 1961, P.A. 116, S. 2; P.A. 91-304, S. 6.)History: 1961 act added Subsec. (1)(f); P.A. 91-304 entirely replaced former provisions re sum certain with provisions re unconditional promise or order, a restatement in part of Sec. 42a-3-105, revised to 1991.See Sec. 42a-3-104(a) for successor provisions to Sec. 42a-3-106, revised to 1991, re sum certain.Cited. 221 C. 530.An unconditional promise or order to pay is not rendered conditional by a modification agreement that is not referenced in the original note. 170 CA 642.
