§ 8.9A-401 Alienability of debtor’s rights
a. Other law governs alienability; exceptions. Except as otherwise provided in subsection (b) and §§ 8.9A-406 through 8.9A-409, whether a debtor’s rights in collateral may be voluntarily or involuntarily transferred is governed by law other than this title.
b. Agreement does not prevent transfer. An agreement between the debtor and secured party which prohibits a transfer of the debtor’s rights in collateral or makes the transfer a default does not prevent the transfer from taking effect.
History
This law was first created in 1964. The record of its establishment is cataloged in chapter 219 of that year’s edition of “Acts of Assembly,” the annual state publication listing all changes made to the Code of Virginia in that year. Unfortunately, the 1964 “Acts” aren’t available online. It has been modified 1 time. Those modifications are cataloged by “The Acts of Assembly,” a state publication, by year and chapter. Those modifications that can be read on the General Assembly’s website will be linked accordingly. That modification is as follows: in 2000, chapter 1007.
1964, c. 219, § 8.9-311; 2000, c. 1007.
