Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. Except as customary in international
transportation, a tangible bill of lading may not be issued in a set of parts.
The issuer is liable for damages caused by violation of this subsection.
2. If a tangible bill of lading is
lawfully issued in a set of parts, each of which contains an identification
code and is expressed to be valid only if the goods have not been delivered
against any other part, the whole of the parts constitutes one bill.
3. If a tangible negotiable bill of lading
is lawfully issued in a set of parts and different parts are negotiated to
different persons, the title of the holder to which the first due negotiation
is made prevails as to both the document of title and the goods even if any
later holder may have received the goods from the carrier in good faith and
discharged the carriers obligation by surrendering its part.
4. A person that negotiates or transfers a
single part of a tangible bill of lading issued in a set is liable to holders
of that part as if it were the whole set.
5. The bailee shall deliver in accordance
with NRS 104.7401 to 104.7404 , inclusive, against the first
presented part of a tangible bill of lading lawfully issued in a set. Delivery
in this manner discharges the bailees obligation on the whole bill.
