Summary

Official abstract published by the California legislature· summary

Existing law extends to any person who, as an employee, and by their own labor, performs work harvesting or transporting harvested crops or farm products that are owned and grown or produced by a limited partnership, a lien upon the severed crops or farm products, or proceeds from their sale, for the value of the labor done, unless the owner who otherwise would be subject to a lien gives the Labor Commissioner a bond that is conditioned upon the payment of all wages found to be due and unpaid in connection with the operations, as specified. This bill would remove the condition on imposition of a lien, as described above, that the crops or farm products be owned and grown or produced by a limited partnership.
