Barocas v. Bohemia Import Co‪.‬

Equitable liens arise only where there is evidence that the parties intended to charge a particular property or fund as security for an obligation. School District No. 3 v. Central Savings Bank & Trust Co., 113 Colo. 487, 159 P.2d 361; Valley State Bank v. Dean, 97 Colo. 151, 47 P.2d 924; Clatworthy v. Ferguson, 72 Colo. 259, 210 P. 693. See American Investors Life Insurance Co. v. Green Shield Plan, Inc., 145 Colo. 188, 358 P.2d 473. This basic requirement stems from the nature of the remedy provided through the theory of equitable liens.
