Colorado § 4-2-602

• Jurisdiction: Colorado
• Title 04: Uniform
• Art.: Sales

Text

(1) Rejection of goods
must be within a reasonable time after their delivery or tender. It is ineffective
unless the buyer seasonably notifies the seller.

(2) Subject to the provisions of the two following sections on rejected goods
(sections 4-2-603 and 4-2-604):

(a) After rejection any exercise of ownership by the buyer with respect to
any commercial unit is wrongful as against the seller; and

(b) If the buyer has before rejection taken physical possession of goods in
which he does not have a security interest under the provisions of this article
(subsection (3) of section 4-2-711), he is under a duty after rejection to hold them
with reasonable care at the seller's disposition for a time sufficient to permit the
seller to remove them; but

(c) The buyer has no further obligations with regard to goods rightfully
rejected.

(3) The seller's rights with respect to goods wrongfully rejected are
governed by the provisions of this article on seller's remedies in general (section 4-2-703).
