Title 60 - LIENS
60.13 Processor and preparer liens for agricultural products.
60.13.053 Priority of lien -- Wine.
RCW 60.13.053 Priority of lien — Wine.
(1)(a) If a statement is filed pursuant to RCW 60.13.040 within sixty days of the date upon which payment from the wine producer is due and remains unpaid, the wine producer lien evidenced by the statement continues its priority over all other liens or security interests upon the vinifera grapes delivered, inventory, and accounts receivable, except as provided in (b) of this subsection. This priority is without regard to whether the other liens or security interests attached before or after the date on which the wine producer lien attached.
(b) The wine producer lien is subordinate to liens for taxes or labor perfected before filing of the wine producer lien.
(2) If the statement provided for in RCW 60.13.040 is not filed within sixty days of the date payment is due and remains unpaid, the wine producer lien thereupon becomes subordinate to:
(a) A lien that has attached to the vinifera grapes delivered, inventory, or accounts receivable before the date on which the wine producer lien attaches; and
(b) A perfected security interest in the vinifera grapes delivered, inventory, or accounts receivable.
