Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

A finder who takes custody has the responsibilities of a bailee; conversion arises when deliberate dealing with the goods is inconsistent with the owner's rights, such as wrongful appropriation or refusal to return them. Return of the goods can still leave liability for loss caused by the interference.
