Remedies and Special Proceedings - As introduced, prevents a receivership proceeding from interfering with the rights of a superior interest holder in property subject to the receivership absent the express consent of the superior interest holder. - Amends TCA Title 29.
HB 1915 amends Tennessee law to protect property owners with prior security interests (like mortgage holders or lienholders) during receivership proceedings. It requires courts to preserve these "superior interest" rights - defined as priority under state law, such as recorded deeds of trust or UCC filings - unless the property owner explicitly consents. The bill specifically prohibits judges from limiting, impeding, or enjoining these rights without consent and adds provisions ensuring such holders can enforce their priority without being deemed to consent to the receivership. These changes apply to receivership cases filed after the law takes effect, directly affecting property owners with documented prior claims.
