n
An unofficial set of laws proposed for all states to adopt as written, for the
purpose of their being more uniformity of laws from state to state. Uniform
laws have been put forth by Commissioners on Uniform State Laws. Some of the
uniform laws have been adopted by a few states only, after making minor or
major changes, while others have been universally adopted, e.g. Uniform Child
Custody and Jurisdiction Act; Uniform Power of Attorney Act; Uniform Anatomical
Donations Act; and Uniform Arbitration Act.Â
