"Nonconsensual common law lien" means a fraudulent lien that is misrepresented as a valid lien because it: (1) Is not provided for by a specific statute; (2) Does not derive its existence from the consent of the owner of the affected property; and (3) Is not an equitable lien or other lien imposed by a court of competent jurisdiction.
