in subsection (c), a document of title is negotiable if by its terms the goods are to be delivered
to bearer or to the order of a named person. (b) A document of title other than one described

of title is nonnegotiable if, at the time it is issued, the document has a conspicuous legend,
however expressed, that it is nonnegotiable. (Prior version of this section added by Acts

7-7-601
Section 7-7-601 Lost, stolen, or destroyed documents of title. (a) If a document of title is
lost, stolen, or destroyed, a court may order delivery of the goods or issuance of a substitute
document and the bailee may without liability to any person comply with the order. If the
document was negotiable, a court may not order delivery of the goods or issuance of a substitute
document without the claimant's posting security unless it finds that any person that may
suffer loss as a result of nonsurrender of possession or control of the document is adequately
protected against the loss. If the document was nonnegotiable, the court may require security.
The court may also order payment of the bailee's reasonable costs and attorney's fees in any
action under this subsection. (b) A bailee that, without a court order, delivers goods to
a person claiming under a missing negotiable document of title is liable to any person injured
thereby. If the delivery is not in good faith, the bailee is...

when it is delivered by a person other than its issuer for the purpose of giving to the person
receiving delivery the right to enforce the instrument. (b) Transfer of an instrument, whether
or not the transfer is a negotiation, vests in the transferee any right of the transferor

Section 7-2-401 Passing of title; reservation for security; limited application of this section.
Each provision of this article with regard to the rights, obligations and remedies of the
seller, the buyer, purchasers or other third parties applies irrespective of title to the
goods except where the provision refers to such title. Insofar as situations are not covered

by the seller of the title (property) in goods shipped or delivered to the buyer is limited

provisions of the article on secured transactions (Article...
