A. Any person in the possession of personal property subject to claim for delinquent taxes and upon whom service of a demand warrant has been made must surrender the personal property to the county treasurer. However, that part of the personal property which is the subject of a bona fide attachment, execution or other similar process need not be surrendered unless the property is released from the attachment, execution or other similar process.
B. Any person who wrongfully fails or refuses to surrender personal property is personally liable for an amount equal to the value of the personal property not surrendered or the amount of the delinquent taxes, penalties and interest on that property, whichever is less.
