NY UCC § 7-209 (2021)
2021 New York Laws UCC - Uniform Commercial Code Article 7 - Documents of Title Part 2 - Warehouse Receipts: Special Provisions 7-209 - Lien of Warehouse.

Section 7--209. Lien of Warehouse.  (a)  A warehouse has a lien against the bailor on the goods covered by a warehouse receipt or storage agreement or on the proceeds  thereof  in its  possession  for  charges  for  storage or transportation, including demurrage and terminal charges,  insurance,  labor,  or  other  charges, present  or future, in relation to the goods, and for expenses necessary for preservation of the goods  or  reasonably  incurred  in  their  sale pursuant  to  law.  If the person on whose account the goods are held is liable for similar charges  or  expenses  in  relation  to  other  goods whenever  deposited and it is stated in the warehouse receipt or storage agreement that a lien is claimed for charges and expenses in relation to other goods, the warehouse also has a lien against the goods covered  by the warehouse receipt or storage agreement or on the proceeds thereof in its  possession for those charges and expenses, whether or not the other goods have been delivered by the warehouse. However, as against a person to  which  a  negotiable  warehouse  receipt  is  duly   negotiated,   a warehouse's  lien  is  limited  to  charges  in  an  amount or at a rate specified in the warehouse receipt or, if no charges are  so  specified, to  a reasonable charge for storage of the specific goods covered by the receipt subsequent to the date of the receipt.  (b) A warehouse may also  reserve  a  security  interest  against  the bailor for the maximum amount specified on the receipt for charges other than  those  specified in subsection (a), such as for money advanced and interest. The security interest is governed by Article 9.  (c) A warehouse's lien for charges and expenses under  subsection  (a) or  a  security  interest under subsection (b) is also effective against any person that so entrusted the bailor with  possession  of  the  goods that  a pledge of them by the bailor to a good-faith purchaser for value would have been valid. However, the lien or  security  interest  is  not effective  against  a person that before issuance of a document of title had a legal interest or a perfected security interest in the  goods  and that did not:  (1) deliver or entrust the goods or any document of title covering the goods to the bailor or the bailor's nominee with:  (A) actual or apparent authority to ship, store, or sell;  (B) power to obtain delivery under Section 7--403; or  (C)   power   of   disposition   under  Sections  2--403,  2A--304(2), 2A--305(2), 9--320, or 9--321(c) or other statute or rule of law; or  (2) acquiesce in the procurement by the bailor or its nominee  of  any document.  (d)  A warehouse's lien on household goods for charges and expenses in relation to the goods under subsection (a) is also effective against all persons if the depositor was the legal possessor of  the  goods  at  the time  of deposit. In this subsection, "household goods" means furniture, furnishings, or personal effects used by the depositor in a dwelling.  (e) A warehouse loses its  lien  on  any  goods  that  it  voluntarily delivers or unjustifiably refuses to deliver.
