If a claimant and a pawnbroker do not resolve a claim within 10 days after the pawnbroker's receipt of a notice of the claim under AS 08.76.370, the claimant may bring an action in superior court to require the pawnbroker to return the property to the claimant. After a pawnbroker is notified that a court action has been filed, the pawnbroker may not dispose of the property until the court disposes of the court action, disposes of the property, or allows the pawnbroker to dispose of the property.
