While a number of bar groups and individuals participated informally in the preparation of the Model Provisions, neither the ABA nor any component thereof has approved the Model Provisions, which are not intended and should not be used as a substitute for legal advice. ------------------------------------------- Internet Distribution Files: ART111.GEN 482 3-22-92 23:39 ART211.GEN 22917 3-22-92 23:39 ART241.GEN 4838 3-22-92 23:39 ART251.GEN 2981 3-22-92 23:39 ART261.GEN 5916 3-22-92 23:39 ART311.GEN 7354 3-22-92 23:39 ART321.GEN 2524 3-22-92 23:39 ART331.GEN 8006 3-22-92 23:39 ART341.GEN 5418 3-22-92 23:39 ART411.GEN 2522 3-22-92 23:39 ART421.GEN 2992 3-22-92 23:39 ART521.GEN 888 3-22-92 23:39 ART711.GEN 10757 3-22-92 23:40 ART811.GEN 2893 3-22-92 23:40 ART1011.GEN 10855 3-22-92 23:40 ART1021.GEN 4330 3-22-92 23:40 COMMENTS.GEN 89085 3-22-92 23:40 ESCROW.GEN 17682 3-22-92 23:40 PVTTRIAL.GEN 29258 3-22-92 23:40 README 4027 4-02-92 10:40 SWLIC3.GEN 240033 3-22-92 23:40 UCC1.GEN 990 3-22-92 23:40
