Can I File A Mechanics Lien or Other Lien in Missouri If an Unpaid Credit Card was Used to Make Purchases?

Missouri

Hi, my then business partner used my business LLC credit card to purchase materials and labor to fund one of his housing projects in Missouri. He took my credit card statements to obtain draws from an Illinois bank that was funding the project. However, one month he kept $40k+ of the draw for himself, instead of sending it to me to pay off the credit card. Now he says he can't pay off the balance of $49k+ on my card. Obviously, the credit card company is going to sue me even though I never used the card myself. Is there anyway I can put a lien on the properties?
