(a) Liens under AS 34.35.230 - 34.35.315 are preferred liens and are prior to other liens. A sale or transfer of timber does not divest a lien on it under AS 34.35.230 - 34.35.315.

(b) As between liens under AS 34.35.230 - 34.35.315 those for work and labor are preferred.

(c) As between liens for work claimed by several laborers on the same timber, the claim or claims for work done or performed on the identical timber proceeded against, to the extent that the timber can be identified, are preferred as against the general claim of liens for work recognized and provided for in AS 34.35.230 - 34.35.315.

(d) The person performing the service or doing the work named in AS 34.35.235 is only entitled to the liens provided in AS 34.35.230 - 34.35.315 for services or work for six calendar months or a shorter period preceding the recording of the claim.

(e) The person granting the privilege mentioned in AS 34.35.245 is only entitled to the lien under that section for timber cut during the six months preceding the recording of the claim as provided in AS 34.35.240.
