54-17-07.11. Pledges
Any pledge made by the industrial commission acting in its capacity as the state housing
finance agency is valid and binding from the time the pledge is made. The money and property
pledged and received by the industrial commission acting in its capacity as the state housing
finance agency, except for general agency money or property, is immediately subject to the lien
of the pledge without any physical delivery thereof or further act, and the lien of any pledge is
valid and binding as against all parties having claims of any kind in tort, contract, or otherwise
against the industrial commission acting in its capacity as the state housing finance agency,
irrespective of whether the parties have notice thereof. Neither the resolution nor any other
instrument by which a pledge is created is required to be recorded to constitute constructive
notice of the existence of the pledge.
