47-7502.  Rights acquired by due negotiation A. Subject to sections 47-7205 and 47-7503,  a holder to which a negotiable document of title has been duly negotiated acquires thereby: 1. Title to the document;  2. Title to the goods;  3. All rights accruing under the law of agency or estoppel,  including rights to goods delivered to the bailee after the document was issued;  and 4. The direct obligation of the issuer to hold or deliver the goods according to the terms of the document free of any defense or claim by the issuer except those arising under the terms of the document or under this chapter,  but in the case of a delivery order,  the bailee's obligation accrues only upon the bailee s acceptance of the delivery order and the obligation acquired by the holder is that the issuer and any indorser will procure the acceptance of the bailee. B. Subject to section 47-7503,  title and rights acquired by due negotiation are not defeated by any stoppage of the goods represented by the document of title or by surrender of the goods by the bailee and are not impaired even if: 1. The due negotiation or any prior due negotiation constituted a breach of duty;   2. Any person has been deprived of possession of a negotiable tangible document or control of a negotiable electronic document by misrepresentation,  fraud,  accident,  mistake,  duress,  loss,  theft or conversion;  or 3.

AZ Rev Stat § 47-7503 (2021)
2021 Arizona Revised Statutes|Title 47 - Uniform Commercial Code|§ 47-7503 - Document of title to goods defeated in certain cases

47-7503.  Document of title to goods defeated in certain cases A. A document of title confers no right in goods against a person that before issuance of the document had a legal interest or a perfected security interest in the goods and that did not: 1. Deliver or entrust the goods or any document of title covering the goods to the bailor or the bailor's nominee with: (a) Actual or apparent authority to ship,  store or sell;   (b) Power to obtain delivery under section 47-7403;  or (c) Power of disposition under section 47-2403,  section 47-2A304,  subsection B,  section 47-2A305,  subsection B,  section 47-9320 or section 47-9321,  subsection C or another statute or rule of law;  or 2. Acquiesce in the procurement by the bailor or its nominee of any document. B.

Title to goods based on a bill of lading issued to a freight forwarder is subject to the rights of any person to which a bill issued by the freight forwarder is duly negotiated. However,  delivery by the carrier in accordance with article 4 of this chapter pursuant to its own bill of lading discharges the carrier's obligation to deliver.

2021 Arizona Revised Statutes|Title 47 - Uniform Commercial Code|§ 47-7504 - Rights acquired in absence of due negotiation; effect of diversion; stoppage of delivery

47-7504.  Rights acquired in absence of due negotiation;  effect of diversion;  stoppage of delivery A. A transferee of a document of title,  whether negotiable or nonnegotiable,  to which the document has been delivered but not duly negotiated,  acquires the title and rights that its transferor had or had actual authority to convey. B. In the case of a transfer of a nonnegotiable document of title,  until but not after the bailee receives notice of the transfer,  the rights of the transferee may be defeated: 1. By those creditors of the transferor that could treat the transfer as void under section 47-2402 or 47-2A308;   2. By a buyer from the transferor in ordinary course of business if the bailee has delivered the goods to the buyer or received notification of the buyer's rights;  3. By a lessee from the transferor in ordinary course of business if the bailee has delivered the goods to the lessee or received notification of the lessee's rights;  or 4. As against the bailee,  by good faith dealings of the bailee with the transferor. C. A diversion or other change of shipping instructions by the consignor in a nonnegotiable bill of lading that causes the bailee not to deliver the goods to the consignee defeats the consignee's title to the goods if the goods have been delivered to a buyer in ordinary course of business or a lessee in ordinary course of business and,  in any event,  defeats the consignee's rights against the bailee. D. Delivery of the goods pursuant to a nonnegotiable document of title may be stopped by a seller under section 47-2705 or a lessor under section 47-2A526,  subject to the requirements of due notification in those sections. A bailee that honors the seller's or lessor's instructions is entitled to be indemnified by the seller or lessor against any resulting loss or expense.

2021 Arizona Revised Statutes|Title 47 - Uniform Commercial Code|§ 47-7601 - Lost, stolen or destroyed documents of title

47-7601.  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 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 liable for conversion. Delivery in good faith is not conversion if the claimant posts security with the bailee in an amount at least double the value of the goods at the time of posting to indemnify any person injured by the delivery that files a notice of claim within one year after the delivery.

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.

" Investment company security"  means a share or similar equity interest issued by an entity that is registered as an investment company under the federal investment company laws,  an interest in a unit investment trust that is so registered,  or a face-amount certificate issued by a face-amount certificate company that is so registered.

However,  an interest in a partnership or limited liability company is a financial asset if it is held in a securities account. D.

However,  a negotiable instrument governed by chapter 3 of this title is a financial asset if it is held in a securities account. E.

A commodity contract,  as defined in section 47-9102,  is not a security or a financial asset. G.

D. Unless the context shows that a different meaning is intended,  a person who is required by other law,  regulation,  rule,  or agreement to transfer,  deliver,  present,  surrender,  exchange or otherwise put in the possession of another person a security or financial asset satisfies that requirement by causing the other person to acquire an interest in the security or financial asset pursuant to subsection A or B of this section.

47-8105.  Notice of adverse claim A. A person has notice of an adverse claim if: 1. The person knows of the adverse claim;  2. The person is aware of facts sufficient to indicate that there is a significant probability that the adverse claim exists and deliberately avoids information that would establish the existence of the adverse claim;  or 3. The person has a duty,  imposed by statute or regulation,  to investigate whether an adverse claim exists,  and the investigation so required would establish the existence of the adverse claim. B. Having knowledge that a financial asset or interest therein is or has been transferred by a representative imposes no duty of inquiry into the rightfulness of a transaction and is not notice of an adverse claim. However,  a person who knows that a representative has transferred a financial asset or interest therein in a transaction that is,  or whose proceeds are being used,  for the individual benefit of the representative or otherwise in breach of duty has notice of an adverse claim. C. An act or event that creates a right to immediate performance of the principal obligation represented by a security certificate or sets a date on or after which the certificate is to be presented or surrendered for redemption or exchange does not itself constitute notice of an adverse claim except in the case of a transfer more than: 1. One year after a date set for presentment or surrender for redemption or exchange;  or 2. Six months after a date set for payment of money against presentation or surrender of the certificate,  if money was available for payment on that date. D. A purchaser of a certificated security has notice of an adverse claim if the security certificate: 1. Whether in bearer or registered form,  has been indorsed " for collection"  or " for surrender"  or for some other purpose not involving transfer;  or 2. Is in bearer form and has on it an unambiguous statement that it is the property of a person other than the transferor,  but the mere writing of a name on the certificate is not such a statement. E. Filing of a financing statement under chapter 9 of this title is not notice of an adverse claim to a financial asset.

Another person has control of the security entitlement on behalf of the purchaser or,  having previously acquired control of the security entitlement,  acknowledges that it has control on behalf of the purchaser. E. If an interest in a security entitlement is granted by the entitlement holder to the entitlement holder's own securities intermediary,  the securities intermediary has control. F.
