Revise special tool lien law

Introduced in the House

March 4, 2009

Introduced by Rep. Bob Constan (D-16)

To revise the “<a href="http://www.michiganvotes.org/2002-HB-5993">special tool lien law</a>” that clarifies who has ownership rights in tools, dies, jigs, gauges, gauging fixtures, special machinery, cutting tools, or metal castings manufactured by a special tool builder, to establish that an “end user” (the person who uses a tool in the manufacturing process) would not only have a lien on the tool, but also on interest and attorney expense related to a dispute. See non-partisan agency <a href="http://www.legislature.mi.gov/documents/2001-2002/billanalysis/House/htm/2001-HLA-5993-a.htm">analysis</a> for an explanation.

Referred to the Committee on Judiciary
