Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. Unless the warehouse receipt provides otherwise, a warehouse shall keep separate 
the goods covered by each receipt so as to permit at all times identification and 
delivery of those goods. However, different lots of fungible goods may be commingled.
2. If different lots of fungible goods are commingled, the goods are owned in common by 
the persons entitled thereto and the warehouse is severally liable to each owner for 
that owner's share. If, because of overissue, a mass of fungible goods is insufficient to 
meet all the receipts the warehouse has issued against it, the persons entitled include 
all holders to which overissued receipts have been duly negotiated.
