Article 1 - Liability for Official Acts
§ 15-13-11. Rule Absolute as Lien on Officer’s Property

When a rule absolute has been obtained against any officer for the payment of money, as provided in Code Sections 15-13-4 and 15-13-5, the rule shall constitute the same lien upon the property, both real and personal, of the officer as an ordinary judgment at law; and, if not punctually paid, the demand shall thereafter draw interest at the rate of 20 percent per annum. The plaintiff may have either an attachment or an execution issued upon the rule absolute and may have either of the processes returned and the other issued, at pleasure.
