(a) On the entry of the certificate of the Director of the Department of Finance and Administration, the circuit clerk shall issue an execution directed to the sheriff of the county, commanding him or her to levy upon and against all real and personal property of the taxpayer, which execution shall be by the clerk placed in the hands of the sheriff for levying thereon. The director shall thereby have all the remedies and may take all the proceedings for the collection of the tax which may be had or taken upon the recovery of a judgment at law.
(b) The execution shall be issued and be served or executed in the same manner as now provided for the issuance and service of executions upon judgments rendered by the circuit courts of this state.
(c) The circuit clerks and the sheriffs shall be entitled to receive the same fees now provided for by law in such matters. The fees shall be collected from the taxpayer by the sheriff in addition to the tax, penalties, and interest included in the certificate of indebtedness.
(d) However, in the event the sheriff is unable, after diligent effort, to effect collection of the tax, interest, penalties, and costs, the director shall be empowered and authorized to pay such fees as are properly shown to be due to the clerk and sheriff out of the Miscellaneous Tax Refund Account.
