§ 57541 Lien Subject To Commercial Code

Key Takeaways

•This law says that a special claim (called a 'lien') on someone's property follows the rules in another part of the law (Division 9 of the Commercial Code).
•The lien rules in this chapter only apply if they are specifically written here. If not, the rules from Division 9 take over.
•This law was added in 1990 to make sure liens follow the bigger set of rules.

Example

If you don't pay a contractor for fixing your house, they might put a lien on your house.

The rules for how that lien works aren't just in this law—they also follow the bigger rules in Division 9 of the Commercial Code. So, if this law doesn’t say something specific, the other rules decide what happens.

Except to the extent specifically set forth in this chapter, the lien created by this chapter is subject to Division 9 (commencing with Section 9101) of the Commercial Code. (Added by Stats. 1990, Ch. 1502, Sec. 1.)
