383.110 Landlord's lien for money or supplies furnished -- Enforcement of lien.

(1) A landlord shall have a superior lien, against which the tenant shall not be entitled

to any exemption, upon the whole crop of the tenant raised upon the leased or

rented premises to reimburse the landlord for money or property furnished to the

tenant to enable him to raise the crop, or to subsist while carrying out his contract of

tenancy. But, the lien of the landlord shall not continue for more than one hundred

and twenty (120) days after the expiration of the term. If the property upon which

there is a lien is removed openly from the leased premises, without fraudulent

intent, and not returned, the landlord shall have a superior lien upon the property so

removed for fifteen (15) days from the date of its removal, and may enforce his lien

against the property wherever found.

(2) The landlord may enforce the lien given in subsection (1) of this section by distress

or attachment, in the manner provided in this chapter for the collection of rent and

subject to the same liability.
