California Codes, Code of Civil Procedure - CCP, Part 2 — Of Civil Actions, Title 9 — Enforcement of Judgments, Division 2 — Enforcement of Money Judgments, Chapter 2 — Liens, Article 3 — Judgment Lien on Personal Property, Section 697.600

(a) A judgment lien on personal property has priority over any other judgment lien thereafter created on the property.

(b) For the purpose of this section, if two or more judgment liens attach to after-acquired property at the same time under subdivision (b) of Section 697.530, the judgment lien first filed has priority.

Notes

Sets priority among judgment liens on personal property by favoring the judgment lien created earlier over any later-created judgment lien. If multiple liens attach simultaneously to after-acquired property, the lien whose notice was filed first has priority over the others.
