Modifies the time limit for filing a lien claim form for commercial construction in New Jersey.

The bill updates the time within which a lien claim form for commercial construction can be filed in New Jersey. Currently, a lien must be filed within 90 days of the last work, services, material, or equipment provided for which payment is claimed. The bill extends this period to 240 days. This change applies to all commercial construction projects, providing more flexibility for contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers to assert their lien rights. The bill also includes provisions for the form and content of the lien claim, ensuring it is properly filed and verified.
