• Jurisdiction: North Dakota
• Title 41: Uniform Commercial Code
• Ch. 41-02: 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
41-02-66 and 41-02-67):
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 the
buyer does not have a security interest under the provisions of this chapter
(subsection 3 of section 41-02-90), the buyer 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 chapter on seller's remedies in general (section 41-02-82).
