KS Stat § 84-7-308 (2021)
2021 Kansas Statutes|Chapter 84 - Uniform Commercial Code|Article 7 - Warehouse Receipts, Bills Of Lading And Other Documents Of Title|84-7-308 Enforcement of carrier's lien.

84-7-308. Enforcement of carrier's lien. (a) A carrier's lien on goods may be enforced by public or private sale of the goods, in bulk or in packages, at any time or place and on any terms that are commercially reasonable, after notifying all persons known to claim an interest in the goods. The notification must include a statement of the amount due, the nature of the proposed sale, and the time and place of any public sale. The fact that a better price could have been obtained by a sale at a different time or in a method different from that selected by the carrier is not of itself sufficient to establish that the sale was not made in a commercially reasonable manner. The carrier sells goods in a commercially reasonable manner if the carrier sells the goods in the usual manner in any recognized market therefor, sells at the price current in that market at the time of the sale, or otherwise sells in conformity with commercially reasonable practices among dealers in the type of goods sold. A sale of more goods than apparently necessary to be offered to ensure satisfaction of the obligation is not commercially reasonable, except in cases covered by the preceding sentence.(b) Before any sale pursuant to this section, any person claiming a right in the goods may pay the amount necessary to satisfy the lien and the reasonable expenses incurred in complying with this section. In that event, the goods may not be sold but must be retained by the carrier, subject to the terms of the bill of lading and this article.(c) A carrier may buy at any public sale pursuant to this section.(d) A purchaser in good faith of goods sold to enforce a carrier's lien takes the goods free of any rights of persons against which the lien was valid, despite the carrier's noncompliance with this section.(e) A carrier may satisfy its lien from the proceeds of any sale pursuant to this section but shall hold the balance, if any, for delivery on demand to any person to which the carrier would have been bound to deliver the goods.(f) The rights provided by this section are in addition to all other rights allowed by law to a creditor against a debtor.(g) A carrier's lien may be enforced pursuant to either subsection (a) or the procedure set forth in K.S.A. 2021 Supp. 84-7-210(b), and amendments thereto.(h) A carrier is liable for damages caused by failure to comply with the requirements for sale under this section and, in case of willful violation, is liable for conversion.History: L. 2007, ch. 90, § 24; July 1, 2008.Revisor's Note:Former section 84-7-308 repealed by L. 2007, ch. 90, § 78 and the number reassigned to the current text.

84-7-309. Duty of care; contractual limitation of carrier's liability. (a) A carrier that issues a bill of lading, whether negotiable or nonnegotiable, shall exercise the degree of care in relation to the goods which a reasonably careful person would exercise under similar circumstances. This subsection does not affect any statute, regulation, or rule of law that imposes liability upon a common carrier for damages not caused by its negligence.(b) Damages may be limited by a term in the bill of lading or in a transportation agreement that the carrier's liability may not exceed a value stated in the bill or transportation agreement if the carrier's rates are dependent upon value and the consignor is afforded an opportunity to declare a higher value and the consignor is advised of the opportunity. However, such a limitation is not effective with respect to the carrier's liability for conversion to its own use.(c) Reasonable provisions as to the time and manner of presenting claims and commencing actions based on the shipment may be included in a bill of lading or a transportation agreement.History: L. 2007, ch. 90, § 25; July 1, 2008.Revisor's Note:Former section 84-7-309 repealed by L. 2007, ch. 90, § 78 and the number reassigned to the current text.

84-7-501. Form of negotiation and requirements of due negotiation. (a) The following rules apply to a negotiable tangible document of title:(1) If the document's original terms run to the order of a named person, the document is negotiated by the named person's indorsement and delivery. After the named person's indorsement in blank or to bearer, any person may negotiate the document by delivery alone.(2) If the document's original terms run to bearer, it is negotiated by delivery alone.(3) If the document's original terms run to the order of a named person and it is delivered to the named person, the effect is the same as if the document had been negotiated.(4) Negotiation of the document after it has been indorsed to a named person requires indorsement by the named person and delivery.(5) A document is duly negotiated if it is negotiated in the manner stated in this subsection to a holder that purchases it in good faith, without notice of any defense against or claim to it on the part of any person, and for value, unless it is established that the negotiation is not in the regular course of business or financing or involves receiving the document in settlement or payment of a monetary obligation.(b) The following rules apply to a negotiable electronic document of title:(1) If the document's original terms run to the order of a named person or to bearer, the document is negotiated by delivery of the document to another person.

84-7-503. Document of title to goods defeated in certain cases.

84-7-601. 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 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 which files a notice of claim within one year after the delivery.History: L. 2007, ch. 90, § 39; July 1, 2008.Revisor's Note:Former section 84-7-601 repealed by L. 2007, ch. 90, § 78 and the number reassigned to the current text.
