(1) After receiving notice that an abstract has been docketed and a lien established under this part, a person in possession of any property which may be subject to execution or lien may not pay over, release, sell, transfer, encumber, or convey that property to any person other than the department, unless the person in possession first receives a release or waiver from the department, or a court order releasing the lien or stating that the liability does not exist or has been satisfied.
