Section 7-2A-511 Merchant lessee's duties as to rightfully rejected goods. (1) Subject to any security interest of a lessee (Section 7-2A-508(5)), if a lessor or a supplier has no agent or place of business at the market of rejection, a merchant lessee, after rejection of goods in his or her possession or control, shall follow any reasonable instructions received from the lessor or the supplier with respect to the goods.
