United States Fourth Circuit
Construction Supervision Services v. Branch Banking & Trust, 13-1560
The bankruptcy court and district court correctly allowed construction subcontractors to serve notice of, and thereby perfect, their liens post-petition, where: 1) the construction subcontractors were entitled to a lien on funds under North Carolina law had an interest in property when the debtor-contractor filed for bankruptcy, by which time the subcontractors had not yet served notice of, and thereby perfected, their liens; and 2) there is no dispute that the other criteria of the applicable bankruptcy stay exception have been met.
