HRS §507-68

Paying to stop a sale of your goods

If you claim a right to goods that are about to be sold to satisfy a lien, you can pay the amount needed to cover the lien and reasonable expenses. Once you pay, the goods won't be sold, but the owner keeps them until a court decides what happens next.
