Collections:

Debtor-creditor law governs situations where one party is unable to pay a monetary debt to another. There are three types of creditors.

First are those who have a lien charged against a particular piece of property. This property (or proceeds from its sale) must be used to satisfy the debt to the lien-creditor before it can be used to satisfy debts to other creditors. A lien may arise through statute, agreement between the parties, or judicial proceedings.

Secondly, a creditor may have a priority interest. A priority arises through statutory law. If a creditor has a priority, his debt must be paid before other debts when the debtor becomes insolvent.

The final type of creditor is one who has neither a lien against the debtor’s property or is the subject of a statutory priority.
