§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.
