South Carolina Liens for the Service to Horses and for the Care of Horses
NOTE: South Carolina has no liens for farriers or breeders
and has only a very limited lien for veterinarians. However,
its boarding lien is broad enough to cover the boarding cost
of residential veterinary, farrier or breeding fees.
I. Limited Veterinarian's Lien
CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA
TITLE 47. ANIMALS, LIVESTOCK AND POULTRY
CHAPTER 11. SALE, GRADING AND INSPECTION OF LIVESTOCK
ARTICLE 1. REGULATION OF STOCKYARDS, EQUINE SALES FACILITIES,
AND DEALERS IN LIVESTOCK
§ 47-11-140. Services of veterinarians
provided for auctions; cost of tests and the like.
The commission may provide the service of competent veterinarians
to attend auction sales at the various public livestock markets
on the day of the sale. The costs, exclusive of the pay of
a veterinarian provided by the commission, of all tests, serums,
vaccine, treatments, and labor furnished by the livestock
auction market necessary for the enforcement of this chapter
and the protection of livestock against contagious and infectious
diseases must be paid for by the buyer of the livestock, and
the costs constitute a lien against the animals.
II. Boarding Lien
CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA
TITLE 29. MORTGAGES AND OTHER LIENS
CHAPTER 15. MISCELLANEOUS LIENS FOR SERVICES, DAMAGES, STORAGE
OR MATERIALS
§ 29-15-60. Animal boarding facilities; liens upon animals
for boarding expenses.
The owner of an animal boarding facility,
at the end of an agreed upon term of boarding, shall have a lien upon
any animal which is left with him for upkeep, rest, and
training until the cost of the upkeep, rest, and training
has been paid by the owner of the animal. The owner of the
animal shall also be responsible for payment of the cost
of upkeep, rest, and training of the animal after notice
of the lien. If the owner of the animal has not paid the
cost of upkeep, rest, and training of the animal after actual
notice of the lien within ten days of such notice, the animal
boarding facility owner may sell the animal after having
advertised the time and place of the sale in a newspaper
having general circulation in the county wherein the animal
boarding facility is located at least seven days before
the sale is to be held. After the sale of the animal, the
owner of the animal boarding facility may deduct the cost
of the upkeep, rest, and training of the animal before and
after date of the notice of the lien, plus all expenses
incurred from the advertising and sale provided in this
section, and shall submit the balance of the proceeds of
the sale to the previous owner of the animal. If the animal
is not purchased at the advertised sale, the owner of the
animal boarding facility shall become the owner of the animal
with all the rights, privileges, and obligations of ownership.
A transfer of ownership pursuant to this section entitles
the new owner of the animal to obtain the breed registration
certificate for the animal from the organization or association
which issued the certificate.
