Warranty of assignor

Official statutory text

The assignor of an option to buy a thing warrants the existence of that option, but does not warrant that the person who granted it can be required to make a final sale.

If, upon exercise of the option, the person who granted it fails to make a final sale, the assignee has against the assignor the same rights as a buyer without warranty has against the seller.

Acts 1993, No. 841, ยง1, eff. Jan. 1, 1995.
