Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. A document of title confers no right in
goods against a person that before issuance of the document had a legal
interest or a perfected security interest in the goods and that did not:
(a) Deliver or entrust the goods or any document
of title covering the goods to the bailor or the bailors nominee with:
(1) Actual or apparent authority to ship,
store or sell;
(2) Power to obtain delivery under NRS 104.7403 ; or
(3) Power of disposition under NRS 104.2403 , 104.9320 , subsection 3 of NRS 104.9321 , subsection 2 of NRS 104A.2304 or subsection 2 of NRS 104A.2305 , or other statute or rule
of law; or
(b) Acquiesce in the procurement by the bailor or
its nominee of any document.
2. Title to goods based upon an unaccepted
delivery order is subject to the rights of any person to whom a negotiable
warehouse receipt or bill of lading covering the goods has been duly
negotiated. That title may be defeated under NRS
104.7504 to the same extent as the rights of the issuer or a transferee
from the issuer.
3. Title to goods based upon a bill of lading
issued to a freight forwarder is subject to the rights of any person to whom a
bill issued by the freight forwarder is duly negotiated. However, delivery by
the carrier in accordance with NRS 104.7401 to 104.7404 , inclusive, pursuant to its
own bill of lading discharges the carriers obligation to deliver.
