Statute Text
Determination of adequacy of bond.
(1) If a lien claimant considers the bond filed with a recording officer of a
county under ORS 87.177 (1) to (3) inadequate to protect the claim of the lien
claimant for some reason other than the amount of the bond, the lien claimant
may petition the court in which the suit to foreclose the lien for the storage
of the chattel may be brought for a determination of the adequacy of the bond.
The petition must be filed within 10 days of receipt of the notice of the
filing of the bond under ORS 87.177 (4) and (5). The petition must describe in
detail the reasons for the inadequacy.
(2) Not later
than two days after the filing of the petition with the court, the lien
claimant shall send a notice of the filing and a copy of the petition by
registered or certified mail to the person who filed the bond. After a hearing,
if the court determines that the bond is inadequate for one or more of the
reasons described by the lien claimant, the court shall order such action as
shall make the bond adequate to protect the claim of lien. [2003 c.193 §6]
