§ 57591 Lien Subject To Commercial Code

• •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).
• •If this chapter doesn't say something specific about the lien, you have to look at Division 9 to know what to do.
• •This law was added in 1990 and hasn't been changed since.

Imagine you fix someone's car, but they don’t pay you. You might have a lien on their car, meaning you can keep it until they pay.

This law says that if the rules about your lien aren’t explained in this chapter, you have to follow the rules in Division 9 of the Commercial Code to know what you can and can’t do.
