N.Y. U.C.C. Law § 9-333

Current through 2024 NY Law Chapter 456
Section 9-333 - Priority of Certain Liens Arising by Operation of Law
(a) "Possessory lien." In this section, "possessory lien" means an interest, other than a security interest or an agricultural lien:
(1) which secures payment or performance of an obligation for services or materials furnished with respect to goods by a person in the ordinary course of the person's business;
(2) which is created by statute or rule of law in favor of the person; and
(3) whose effectiveness depends on the person's possession of the goods.
(b) Priority of possessory lien. A possessory lien on goods has priority over a security interest in the goods unless the lien is created by a statute that expressly provides otherwise.
