§12A-7-602.
   
   Except where the document was originally issued upon delivery of the
   goods by a person who had no power to dispose of them, no lien
   attaches by virtue of any judicial process to goods in the possession
   of a bailee for which a negotiable document of title is outstanding
   unless the document be first surrendered to the bailee or its
   negotiation enjoined, and the bailee shall not be compelled to deliver
   the goods pursuant to process until the document is surrendered to him
   or impounded by the court. One who purchases the document for value
   without notice of the process or injunction takes free of the lien
   imposed by judicial process.
