§3602

§3601. Logs and lumber generally

A person who labors at cutting, hauling, rafting or driving logs or lumber, or at cooking for persons engaged in such labor, or in shoeing horses or oxen, or repairing property while thus employed, has a lien on the logs and lumber for the amount due for that person's personal services and the services performed by that person's team, and for the use of that person's truck, motor vehicle or other mechanical equipment, which takes precedence of all other claims except liens reserved to the State. A person who both shores and runs logs or whose servants or agents shore and run logs has a lien on the logs for the price of that shoring and running. The liens continue for 60 days after the logs or lumber arrive at the place of destination for sale or manufacture and may be enforced by attachment.   [PL 2025, c. 390, Pt. A, §20 (AMD).]
