Manner and effect of rightful rejection

Code 1933, § 109A-2-602, enacted by Ga

(1) Rejection of goods must be within a reasonable time after their

delivery or tender. It is ineffective unless the buyer seasonably notifies

the seller.

(2) Subject to the provisions of Code Sections 11-2-603 and 11-2-604

on rejected goods:

(a) After rejection any exercise of ownership by the buyer with respect to any commercial unit is wrongful as against the seller; and

(b) If the buyer has before rejection taken physical possession of goods in which he does not have a security interest under the provisions of this article (subsection (3) of Code Section 11-2-711), he is under a duty after rejection to hold them with reasonable care at the seller’s disposition for a time sufficient to permit the seller to

remove them; but

(c) The buyer has no further obligations with regard to goods

rightfully rejected.

(3) The seller’s rights with respect to goods wrongfully rejected are governed by the provisions of this article on seller’s remedies in general

(Code Section 11-2-703).
