28-7-507. WARRANTIES ON NEGOTIATION OR DELIVERY OF DOCUMENT OF TITLE.

(1) The document is genuine;
(2) The transferor does not have knowledge of any fact that would impair the document’s validity or worth; and
(3) The negotiation or delivery is rightful and fully effective with respect to the title to the document and the goods it represents.
