Title 44, Chapter 14, Section 451
( 44-14-451)
Any persons, firms, or corporations shall have the right to retain
possession of the articles laundered, cleaned, tailored, altered,
repaired, or dyed by them until their charges have been paid; but,
if any articles are delivered to the person for whom the service was
performed without collecting the agreed price or reasonable value of
laundering, cleaning, tailoring, altering, repairing, or dyeing the
articles, the lien shall be lost upon the articles so delivered but
shall attach to any other goods, clothing, wearing apparel, shoes,
or other articles belonging to the person for whom the work was
done, which articles may later come into the possession of such
person, firm, or corporation for the purpose of being laundered,
cleaned, tailored, altered, repaired, or dyed. |
