KANSAS COMMENT, 2010
The U3C limits the credit-related charges a creditor may impose on a consumer not only at the outset of the contract but also at the default stage. Except for delinquency charges (K.S.A. 16a-2-502), collection costs and attorneys' fees (K.S.A. 16a-2-507), and expenses arising from realizing on collateral authorized by the UCC (K.S.A. 84-9-615), the creditor may impose no collection or default charges on a consumer.
