Report of 48th Session California Legislature

Assembly Bill 789 amends Section ll97 and provides for an attachment either in an action to foreclose his lien or in a separate action against the'person 'personally liable for such debt. This clarifies a point which has caused difficulty by reason of the fact that certain County Clerks did not understand that an Attachment could be issued in the same action.

In addition to the above a resolution was passed calling for the appointment of a' Committee to consist of three members of the Assembly and three members of the Senate to investigate the necessity for changes in Mechanics' Lien Law and report at the next Session of the Legislature.

In the closing days of the Session an attempt was made to amend one section which would have been very detrimental, but by being on the ground this was defeated. No advetse legislation removing any of the protection already had, was passed.

The work done was with the cooperation of the Building Material Dealers Credit Association of Los Angeles, California, Mill Work Institute, California Nlanufacturers As-' sociation, The State Department of Labor, and should be very beneficial to all interests connected with the construction industry.
