New Jersey Liens for Service to Horses and for the Care of Horses
NOTE: New Jersey has a combined statute that covers agisters,
veterinarians, and farriers. The statute does not explicitly
cover breeders, but might be stretched to do so.
NEW JERSEY STATUTES
TITLE 2A. ADMINISTRATION OF CIVIL AND CRIMINAL JUSTICE
SUBTITLE 6. SPECIFIC CIVIL ACTIONS
CHAPTER 44. LIENS--BONDS OF AND MONEY PAID TO CONTRACTORS
ON PUBLIC WORKS
ARTICLE 7. LIVERY STABLES, AND BOARDING AND EXCHANGE STABLE KEEPERS
2A:44-51. Right of lien; retention of property when amount due unpaid
Every keeper of a livery stable or boarding and exchange
stable, shall have a lien on all animals left with him in
livery, for board, sale or exchange and upon all carriages,
wagons, sleighs and harness left with him for storage, sale
or exchange for the amount due such proprietor for the board
and keep of such animal and also for such storage, and shall
have the right, without process of law, to retain the same
until the amount of such indebtedness is discharged.
As used in this section, "keeper of a livery stable"
shall include, but need not be limited to, a proprietor
of a stable, a trainer, a veterinarian, a farrier, or any
other person who has a financial relationship with the owner
of the horse.
2A:44-52. Sale of retained property; disposition of proceeds
Property retained by the proprietor under this article shall
be sold at public auction, after the expiration of 30 days
from the date of such retention.
Notice of the sale shall be first published once in each
of the 2 weeks preceding the day of the sale in a newspaper
circulating in the municipality in which the stable is situated,
and 5 days' notice of the sale shall be given by posting
a copy of the notice in 5 public places in the municipality.
The proceeds of sale after the deduction of the expenses
thereof shall first be applied to the payment of the indebtedness,
and the balance, if any, shall be paid to the owner of the
property, or his representative. The balance, if not claimed
by the owner within 60 days after sale, shall be paid to
the municipality, in which the stable is situated, for the
support of the poor.
