§ 55635 Producer Lien Attachment Rules

Key Takeaways

•If a farmer or producer delivers goods (like crops or milk) but doesn't get paid, they have a legal claim on those goods.
•This claim starts the day the goods are delivered. If there are multiple deliveries, it starts from the last one.
•The claim stays until the producer is paid or gets a promise of payment (like a check or contract).
•This rule helps producers make sure they get their money.

Example

A dairy farmer delivers milk to a store every week but the store doesn’t pay for the last three deliveries.

The farmer can claim the money from the unpaid milk deliveries starting from the date of the last delivery. The store can’t sell or use that milk until the farmer is paid.

The lien of a producer, unless sooner released by payment or by security which is given for the payment as provided in this article, attaches from the date of delivery of the product, or if there is a series of deliveries, it attaches from the date of the last delivery. (Amended by Stats. 1986, Ch. 1109, Sec. 4.)
