(a) When the ruling of the commissioner, following a hearing provided for under the Uniform Administrative Procedures Act, compiled in title 4, chapter 5, is favorable to the claimant, the commissioner shall deliver to the claimant the petroleum products and other property that were seized.
(b) When the ruling of the commissioner is adverse to the claimant, and the claimant appeals, the commissioner shall deliver to the claimant the petroleum products and other property so seized; provided, that the claimant shall first post a bond, approved by the commissioner, payable to the state in a sum double the value of the property seized. The condition of the bond shall be that the obligors will pay to the department, the full value of the goods, or property seized, unless upon appeal the decision of the commissioner is reversed and the right of the claimant to the property judicially determined. If the claimant does not post a bond satisfactory to the commissioner, the commissioner shall proceed to sell the contraband goods under § 67-1-1435.
(c) If no claim is interposed, the petroleum products or other property shall be forfeited without further proceedings and shall be sold as provided in this section.
(d) The procedures provided for in this section and in § 67-3-808 are the sole remedies of any claimant and no court shall have jurisdiction to interfere with these remedies by replevin, injunction or in any other manner.
