Statute Text
Who
can sue third parties for injury to goods.
Where a third party so deals with goods which have
been identified to a contract for sale as to cause actionable injury to a party
to that contract:
(1) A right of
action against the third party is in either party to the contract for sale who
has title to or a security interest or a special property or an insurable
interest in the goods; and if the goods have been destroyed or converted a
right of action is also in the party who either bore the risk of loss under the
contract for sale or has since the injury assumed that risk as against the
other.
(2) If at the
time of the injury the party plaintiff did not bear the risk of loss as against
the other party to the contract for sale and there is no arrangement between
them for disposition of the recovery, the suit or settlement of the party
plaintiff is, subject to the interest of the party plaintiff, as a fiduciary
for the other party to the contract.
(3) Either party
may with the consent of the other sue for the benefit of whom it may concern. [1961
