§ 12-6-128. Payout exemption to execution
A motor vehicle dealer's right to receive payments from a manufacturer or distributor required by section 12-6-120 (1)(l) and (1)(r) is not liable to attachment or execution and may not otherwise be seized, taken, appropriated, or applied in a legal or equitable process or by operation of law to pay the debts or liabilities of the manufacturer or distributor. This section shall not prohibit a secured creditor from exercising rights accrued pursuant to a security agreement if the right arose as a result of the manufacturer or distributor voluntarily creating a security interest before paying existing debts or liabilities of the manufacturer or distributor. This section shall not prohibit a manufacturer or distributor from withholding a portion of such payments necessary to cover an amount of money owed to the manufacturer or distributor as an offset to such payments if the manufacturer or distributor provides the motor vehicle dealer written notice thereof.
