35-20-05. Vendor's lien on personalty - Dependent on possession - Enforced as

pledge.

One who sells personal property has a special lien thereon, dependent on possession, for

its price, if it is in that person's possession when the price becomes payable, and may enforce

that person's lien in like manner as if the property was pledged to that person for the price.
