56:4A-8 Notification to customer by molder before sale.

3. a. Before a molder may sell the die, mold, form or pattern, the molder shall notify the customer and, if the owner is different from the customer, the owner by certified mail, return receipt requested. The notice shall include the following information:

(1) the molder's intention to sell the die, mold, form or pattern 30 days after the notice was mailed;

(2) a description of the die, mold, form or pattern to be sold;

(3) the time and place of the sale; and

(4) an itemized statement for the amount due.

b. If the die, mold, form or pattern is sold for an amount which is greater than the amount of the lien plus all reasonable expenses of the sale, any excess amount shall be paid to any prior lienholder known to the molder at the time of the sale and any remainder to the customer, or if the owner is different from the customer, to the owner. If there is no prior lienholder and the customer or, if the owner is different from the customer, the owner has not responded to the notices required to be sent pursuant to this act, any excess shall be paid to the State Treasurer for deposit in the General Fund.

c. A lien under this act shall not take priority over an existing perfected security interest.

d. A customer or, if the owner is different from the customer, the owner shall seek repossession of a mold, die, form or pattern subject to a lien under this act only by posting a bond in the amount of the charges outstanding.
