A is corrent. The requirement is to identify the standard of liability that must be established to hold a warehouser liable for loss or damage to stored property. This is an example of a bailment for mutual benefit and the bailee must take reasonable care of the property in light of the facts and circumstances. Thus, the warehouser would be held liable for ordinary negligence.
B is incorrect because while the warehouser would be held liable for this type of conduct, the level of care required is reasonable care.
C is incorrect because the warehouser is not held to a strict liability standard.
D is incorrect because while the warehouser would be held liable for this type of conduct, the level of care required is reasonable care.
