Pyramid Construction has a contract to build a warehouse facility for Roadrunner Storage. Texas law provides that, in order to have a valid mechanic's lien, a claimant must record its lien within 90 days after completion of the project. Pyramid records its lien 120 days after completion. Six months after completion, Pyramid has still not been paid. Pyramid files a suit to foreclose its lien. What will be the likely result? Roadrunner will win, because Pyramid did not timely record its lien Pyramid will win, because a mechanic's lien is a common law device and therefore not subject to statute Roadrunner will win, because this work was subject only to an artisan's lien and not a mechanic's lien Pyramid will win, because the common law requires a 30 day grace period for filing of a lien
