KRS 376.410: Enforcement of lien for care of livestock.

Any person in whose favor a lien provided for in KRS 376.400 exists may, before the

District Court of the county where the cattle were fed or grazed, by himself or agent,

make affidavit of the amount due him and in arrears for keeping and caring for the ca ttle,

and describing as nearly as possible the cattle so kept by him. The court shall then issue a

warrant, directed to the sheriff or any constable or town marshal of the county,

authorizing him to levy upon and seize the cattle for the amount due, with i nterest and

costs. If the cattle are removed with the consent and from the custody of the livery stable

keeper or the person feeding or grazing them, the lien shall not continue longer than one

(1) year from and after the removal, nor shall the lien in cas e of such removal be valid

against a bona fide purchaser without notice at any time after the removal. The warrant

may be issued to a county other than that in which the cattle were fed or grazed, and the

lien may also be enforced by action as in the case of other liens.
