imposed under Part 10 (commencing with Section 17001) or Part 11
(commencing with Section 23001) at the time that it becomes due and
payable, the amount thereof, (including any interest, additional

Franchise Tax Board, except that in no case will it be prior to the
day after the payment due date;
(2) For amounts of any liability disclosed on a return filed after
the date payment is due (with regard to any extension of time to
pay), the date the amount is established on the records of the
Franchise Tax Board;
(3) For amounts of any liability determined under Section 19081 or
19082 (pertaining to jeopardy assessments), the date the notice of
the Franchise Tax Board's finding is mailed or issued;
(4) For all other amounts of liability, the date the assessment is
final.
(c) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), during any period that
Section 362 of Title 11 of the United States Code applies, any tax
lien that would otherwise attach to property by reason of subdivision
(a) shall not take effect, unless the tax is a debt of the debtor
that will not be discharged in the bankruptcy proceeding and the
property or its proceeds are transferred out of the bankruptcy estate
to, or otherwise revested in, the debtor.
