1 Lorsque le destinataire conteste les réclamations dont la marchandise est grevée, il ne peut exiger la livraison que s’il consigne en justice le montant contesté.
2 La somme consignée remplace la marchandise quant au droit de rétention appartenant au voiturier.
1 Unconditional acceptance of the goods and payment of the freight charge extinguish all claims against the carrier, except in cases of deliberate deceit or gross negligence.
2 Furthermore, the carrier remains liable for damage that is not externally apparent where such damage is discovered within the time in which, in the circumstances, the consignee was able or might reasonably be expected to inspect the goods, provided he notifies the carrier immediately on discovering such damage.
3 However, such notification must be given no later than eight days after delivery.
