Keeper of livery stable; liens; requirements. Creates a process by which any person that boards, pastures, or otherwise keeps any horse, cattle, or other animal may impose a possessory lien for the reasonable charges due for such animal's care, feeding, and maintenance, including the number of days for which the lienholder may retain possession of the animal until certain conditions are met and a procedure for the owner of the animal to dispute such lien. Under current law, the process for imposing a possessory lien for charges due relating to the boarding, pasturing, or keeping of an animal is governed by the same provisions that set out requirements for imposing a lien for the storage of boats, aircraft, and harnesses in a hangar, marina, or tie-down.
