A receiptholder does not have a separate claim for relief upon the warehouseman’s bond, for insurance, against any person converting grain, nor against any other receiptholder, except through the trustee, unless, upon demand of five or more receiptholders, the commissioner fails or refuses to apply for the commissioner’s own appointment. This chapter does not prohibit or prevent a receiptholder, either individually or with other receiptholders, from pursuing concurrently other remedies against the person or property of the warehouseman, for the whole, or any deficiency occurring in the redemption, of the receipts.
