Mont. Code Ann. § 30-9A-333

Priority of certain liens arising by operation of law

Known as the Uniform Commercial Code

The act spans §§ 30-1-101–30-9A-906 (713 sections).

En

(1) In this section, "possessory lien" means an interest, other than a security interest or an agricultural lien:

(a) that 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;

(b) that is created by statute or rule of law in favor of the person; and

(c) whose effectiveness depends on the person's possession of the goods.

(2) 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.
