Section 411.581 - Warranties on negotiation or transfer of receipt

A person who for value negotiates or transfers a receipt by endorsement or delivery, including one who assigns for value a claim secured by a receipt unless a contrary intention appears, warrants:

(1) That the receipt is genuine;
(2) That he has a legal right to negotiate or transfer it;
(3) That he has knowledge of no fact which would impair the validity or worth of the receipt; and
