History
UCITA has started as an attempt to modify Uniform Commercial Code, by introducing new article (Article 2B), also known as UCC2B. Committee for drafting UCC2B consisted of both members from NCCUSL and members of American Law Institute (ALI). At certain stage of the process, ALI has withdrawn from the drafting process, effectively killing UCC2B. Afterwards, NCCUSL has renamed UCC2B into UCITA and proceeded on its own.
