Okla. Stat. tit. 12A, § 12A-7-304: Bills of lading in a set

Bills of Lading in a Set.

(a) Except as customary in international transportation, a

tangible bill of lading may not be issued in a set of parts. The

issuer is liable for damages caused by violation of this subsection.

(b) If a tangible bill of lading is lawfully issued in a set of

parts, each of which has an identification code and is expressed to

be valid only if the goods have not been delivered against any other

part, the whole of the parts constitutes one bill.

(c) If a tangible negotiable bill of lading is lawfully issued

in a set of parts and different parts are negotiated to different

persons, the title of the holder to which the first due negotiation

is made prevails as to both the document of title and the goods even

if any later holder may have received the goods from the carrier in

good faith and discharged the carrier's obligation by surrendering

its part.

(d) A person that negotiates or transfers a single part of a

tangible bill of lading issued in a set is liable to holders of that

part as if it were the whole set.

(e) The bailee shall deliver in accordance with Part 4 of this

article against the first presented part of a tangible bill of

lading lawfully issued in a set. Delivery in this manner discharges

the bailee's obligation on the whole bill.
