����� (a) Judgment has been entered on the debt; or

����� (b) Liability for and the amount of the debt have been established through an administrative proceeding.

����� (2) If a person fails to pay in full any liquidated and delinquent debt due the Department of Transportation, the department may issue a warrant for the amount due, with the added penalties or charges, interest and cost of executing the warrant. A copy of the warrant shall be mailed or delivered to the debtor by the department at the debtor�s last-known address.

����� (3) At any time after issuing a warrant under this section, the department may record the warrant in the County Clerk Lien Record of any county of this state.

After recording a warrant, the department may direct the sheriff for the county in which the warrant is recorded to levy upon and sell the real and personal property of the debtor found within that county, and to levy upon any currency of the debtor found within that county, for the application of the proceeds or currency against the amount reflected in the warrant and the sheriff�s cost of executing the warrant. The sheriff shall proceed on the warrant in the same manner prescribed by law for executions issued against property pursuant to a judgment, and is entitled to the same fees as provided for executions issued against property pursuant to a judgment. The fees of the sheriff shall be added to and collected as a part of the warrant liability.
