Section 6 of the Builders Lien Act prohibits using the holdback to pay for the completion of the contract, pay for damages, or any other purpose, until the possibility of a lien arising under the person who is in default is exhausted. If no lien is filed within the allowed 45 days, the holdback may be applied.
