Beyond Tucker v. Lassen: The Future of the Due-on-Sale Clause in California

Authors

Bernie Wolf

Abstract

In Tucker v. Lassen Savings & Loan Association, the California Supreme Court ruled that a lender may not automatically enforce a due-on-sale clause when a trustor-obligor enters into an installment sale contract with a third party. The author discusses the Tucker decision and its impact on the future use of the due-on-sale clause in California, arguing that the Tucker test has broad applicability.
