Title XXIV VESSELS
Chapter 328 VESSELS: TITLE CERTIFICATES; LIENS; REGISTRATION Entire Chapter
SECTION 065
Effect of possession of certificate of title; judicial process.
F.S. 328.065
1328.065 Effect of possession of certificate of title; judicial process.—Possession of a certificate of title does not by itself provide a right to obtain possession of a vessel. Garnishment, attachment, levy, replevin, or other judicial process against the certificate is not effective to determine possessory rights to the vessel. This part does not prohibit enforcement under the laws of this state of a security interest in, levy on, or foreclosure of a statutory or common-law lien on a vessel. Absence of an indication of a statutory or common-law lien on a certificate does not invalidate the lien.
History.—s. 11, ch. 2019-76.
