Abstract:
No lien can be acquired against a public building by laborers who worked in erecting the building or by suppliers of material used in its construction. To provide laborers and materialmen on public construction with the production normally provided by a lein, a North Carolina statute requires that on certain public works projects the contractor shall execute a bond to guarantee the payment of laborers and materialmen.
