NRS104.9333. Priority of certain possessory liens arising by operation of law.

      1.  In this section, “possessory lien” means an interest, other than a security interest or an agricultural lien:

      (a) Which secures payment or performance of an obligation for services or materials furnished with respect to goods by a person in the ordinary course of his or her business;

      (b) Which is created by statute or rule of law in his or her favor; and

      (c) Whose effectiveness depends on his or her possession of the goods.

      2.  A possessory lien on goods has priority over a security interest in the goods unless the lien is created by a statute that expressly provides otherwise.
