§ 25-9-205.  Use or disposition of collateral permissible.

(a)        When security interest not invalid or fraudulent. - A security interest is not invalid or fraudulent against creditors solely because:

(1)        The debtor has the right or ability to:

a.         Use, commingle, or dispose of all or part of the collateral, including returned or repossessed goods;

b.         Collect, compromise, enforce, or otherwise deal with collateral;

c.         Accept the return of collateral or make repossessions; or

d.         Use, commingle, or dispose of proceeds; or

(2)        The secured party fails to require the debtor to account for proceeds or replace collateral.

(b)        Requirements of possession not relaxed. - This section does not relax the requirements of possession if attachment, perfection, or enforcement of a security interest depends upon possession of the collateral by the secured party.
