§ 34-17-105 — Delivery of goods without obtaining negotiable receipt

A warehouseman, or any officer, agent, or servant of a
warehouseman who delivers goods out of the possession of such
warehouseman, knowing that a negotiable receipt the negotiation
of which would transfer the right to the possession of such
goods, is outstanding and uncancelled, without obtaining the
possession of such receipt at or before the time of such
delivery, shall, except in the cases provided for in sections 14
and 36, be guilty of a crime, and upon conviction shall be
punished for each offense by imprisonment not exceeding one (1)
year, or by a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars
($1,000.00), or by both.
