§ 602. § 7—602.

  • Judicial process against goods covered by negotiable document of title Unless a document of title was originally issued upon delivery of the goods by a person
    that did not have power to dispose of them, a lien does not attach by virtue of any
    judicial process to goods in the possession of a bailee for which a negotiable document
    of title is outstanding unless possession or control of the document is first surrendered
    to the bailee or the document’s negotiation is enjoined. The bailee may not be compelled
    to deliver the goods pursuant to process until possession or control of the document
    is surrendered to the bailee or to the court. A purchaser of the document for value
    without notice of the process or injunction takes free of the lien imposed by judicial
    process. (Added 2015, No. 51, § B.3, eff. June 3, 2015.)
