When does a bailee have cause of action against the owner of a property?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Ememas v. Speedex Logistics, Inc., B279076 (Cal. App. 2018):

when the possessor acts in a manner inconsistent with the owner's interests. (Naftzger v. American Numismatic Society (1996) 42 Cal.App.4th 421, 429.) In the context of a bailment, the bailor's cause of action does not accrue until the bailee refuses a demand to surrender the property. (Ibid.)
