47-7-9. Liens against units; removal from lien; effect of part payment.

A.     Subsequent to recording the declaration as provided in the Building Unit Ownership Act, and while the property remains subject to the act, no lien shall arise or be effective against the property. During the period, liens or encumbrances shall only arise or be created against each unit and the percentage of undivided interest in the common areas and facilities, appurtenant to the unit, in the same manner and under the same conditions as liens and encumbrances may arise or be created upon any other parcel of real property subject to individual ownership; provided, however, that no labor performed or materials furnished, with the consent or at the request of a unit owner or his agent or his contractor or subcontractor, shall be the basis for the filing of a lien pursuant to law against the unit or other property of another unit owner not expressly consenting to or requesting the same; except that express consent shall be deemed to be given by the owner of any unit in the case of emergency repairs. Labor performed or materials furnished for the common areas and facilities, if duly authorized by the association of unit owners, the manager or board of directors in accordance with the Building Unit Ownership Act, the declaration or bylaws, shall be deemed to be performed or furnished with the express consent of each unit owner and shall be the basis for the filing of a lien pursuant to law against each of the units.   

B.     In the event a lien is effected against two or more units, the unit owners of the separate units may remove their unit and the percentage of undivided interest in the common areas and facilities appurtenant to the unit from the lien by payment of the fractional or proportional amount attributable to each of the units affected. Individual payment shall be computed by reference to the percentages established by the declaration. Subsequent to payment, discharge or other satisfaction, the unit and the percentage of undivided interest in the appurtenant common areas and facilities shall be released from the lien paid, satisfied or discharged. Partial payment, satisfaction or discharge shall not prevent the lienor from proceeding to enforce his rights against any unit and the percentage of undivided interest in the appurtenant common areas and facilities not released or discharged.
