In all cases where a conditional forfeiture has been made final by any court of the state or any of its subdivisions and there has been no further action or request filed with the court, appeal taken, application to the State Pardons and Paroles Board, or any other litigation of which the court has knowledge has been filed by the surety with the court within 30 days of the entry or order of the final judgment and the same has not been paid to the clerk of the court, then the clerk shall refuse to accept and approve any bonds from the surety as being insufficient. The clerk shall notify all persons authorized to accept and approve bonds returnable to the court of the action and they shall no longer accept or approve surety on bonds until notified otherwise by the clerk. The clerk shall also notify the circuit clerk of the county who shall notify all other clerks of any courts in the county in writing and the clerks shall refuse to accept or approve any other bonds of the surety and shall notify the other authorized persons having the authority to approve and accept bail returnable to their courts of the action and they shall no longer accept or approve the surety on bail until otherwise notified by the clerk. Refusal by the clerks shall be in writing and shall be known as a "clerk's revocation of surety."
