Simple English definitions for legal terms

artisan's lien

Read a random definition: Codex Hermogenianus

A quick definition of artisan's lien:

An artisan's lien is a way for workers to make sure they get paid for their work on someone else's property. It means they have a right to keep that property until they are paid. It's like a mechanic's lien, but for people who do other kinds of work.

A more thorough explanation:

An artisan's lien is a type of legal claim that gives workers a right to keep possession of personal property until they have been paid for their work on that property. This type of lien is similar to a mechanic's lien, which gives mechanics the right to keep possession of a vehicle until they have been paid for their repairs.

For example, if a carpenter builds a custom bookshelf for a client but the client fails to pay for the work, the carpenter may be able to assert an artisan's lien on the bookshelf. This would give the carpenter the right to keep possession of the bookshelf until they have been paid for their work.

Another example would be a jeweler who creates a custom piece of jewelry for a customer but is not paid for their work. The jeweler may be able to assert an artisan's lien on the jewelry, giving them the right to keep possession of it until they have been paid.

Overall, an artisan's lien is a way for workers to protect themselves from non-payment for their services by asserting a legal claim on the property they have worked on.

My berkeley paragraph finally disappeared. I definitely think it is just an indicator that they are actively reviewing files, and does not mean anything about A, WL, or Rs
