Rights and title of consignee with respect to creditors and purchasers

Known as the Uniform Commercial Code

The act spans §§ 10–10 (238 sections).

Acts 2001, No. 128, §1, eff

(a) Consignee has consignor's rights. Except as otherwise provided in Subsection (b), for purposes of determining the rights of creditors of, and purchasers for value of goods from, a consignee, while the goods are in the possession of the consignee, the consignee is deemed to have rights and title to the goods identical to those the consignor had or had power to transfer.

(b) Applicability of other law. For purposes of determining the rights of a creditor of, or purchaser of goods from, a consignee, while goods are in the consignee's possession, law other than this Chapter determines the rights and title of a consignee if, under this Part, a perfected security interest held by the consignor would have priority over the rights of the creditor or purchaser.
