Chapter 4 Stop Notice For Public Work. Article 3 Conditions To Service Of Stop Notice.

No assignment by the original contractor of any of the money due or to become due to the original contractor under the contract, or for "extras" in connection therewith whether made before or after the service of a stop notice, takes priority over a stop notice under this chapter and such assignment has no effect on the rights of the stop notice claimants. Any garnishment of such money by any creditor of the original contractor pursuant to Article 8 (commencing with Section 708.710) of Chapter 6 of Division 2 of Title 9 o f Part 2 of the Code of Civil Procedure and any statutory lien thereon are subordinate to the rights of all stop notice claimants.

(Amended by Stats. 1982, Ch. 497, Sec. 14.)
