Nevada § 104.7307 - Lien of carrier

§ 104.7307. Lien of carrier

1. A carrier has a lien on the goods covered by a bill of lading or on the proceeds

thereof in its possession for charges after the date of the carrier's receipt of the

goods for storage or transportation, including demurrage and terminal charges, and

for expenses necessary for preservation of the goods incident to their transportation

or reasonably incurred in their sale pursuant to law. However, against a purchaser for value of a negotiable bill of lading, a carrier's

lien is limited to charges stated in the bill or the applicable tariffs or, if no

charges are stated, a reasonable charge. 2. A lien for charges and expenses under subsection 1 on goods that the carrier was

required by law to receive for transportation is effective against the consignor or

any person entitled to the goods unless the carrier had notice that the consignor

lacked authority to subject the goods to those charges and expenses. Any other lien under subsection 1 is effective against the consignor and any person

that permitted the bailor to have control or possession of the goods unless the carrier

had notice that the bailor lacked authority. 3. A carrier loses its lien on any goods that it voluntarily delivers or unjustifiably

refuses to deliver.
