Liens are general or special. A general lien is one which the holder thereof is entitled to enforce as security for the performance of all the obligations or all of a particular class of obligations which exist in his favor against the owner of the property. A special lien is one which the holder thereof can enforce only as security for the performance of a particular act or obligation and of such obligations as may be incidental thereto.
