The commissioner shall prescribe the form of all warehouse receipts, and no other character or form of warehouse receipt shall be issued except those so authorized.
Receipts must be issued for all commodities stored in a warehouse. Receipts need not be issued against nonstorage commodities, but each warehouseman shall keep accurate records of the weights, kinds, and grades, if graded, of all lots of nonstorage commodities received into and delivered from the warehouseman's warehouse.
No warehouse receipt shall be issued except on actual delivery of commodities into storage in the warehouse from which it purports to be issued, nor shall any receipt be issued for a greater quantity of commodities than was contained in the lot or parcel so received from storage, nor shall more than one (1) receipt be issued for the same lot of commodities, except in cases where a receipt for a part of a lot is desired, and then the aggregate receipts for a particular lot shall cover that lot and no more.
No warehouseman shall issue or aid the issuance of a receipt for commodities knowing that the commodities for which the receipt is issued and has not actually been received by the warehouseman or that the commodities are not under the warehouseman's actual control at the time of issuing the receipt.
