Title 2A. Leases
Subtitle 5. Default

§ 2A–514Copy Citation

(1)
In rejecting goods, a lessee’s failure to state a particular defect that is ascertainable by reasonable inspection precludes the lessee from relying on the defect to justify rejection or to establish default:
(a)
If, stated seasonably, the lessor or the supplier could have cured it (§ 2A-513); or
(b)
Between merchants if the lessor or the supplier after rejection has made a request in writing for a full and final written statement of all defects on which the lessee proposes to rely.
(2)
A lessee’s failure to reserve rights when paying rent or other consideration against documents precludes recovery of the payment for defects apparent in the documents.
