Section I-4367 - Failure to Pay Tax; Rule to Cease Business
A. The failure to pay any tax when due as provided in state and local sales or use tax laws and regulations pertaining thereto shall cause said tax, interest, penalty and cost to become immediately delinquent. The collector has the authority to use summary process in any court of competent jurisdiction to require the dealer owing the tax to show cause why he should not be ordered to cease from further pursuit of his business. The rule to show cause shall be set for hearing at least two but not more than 10 days, exclusive of holidays, after it is filed. It may be tried out of turn, in chambers with preference and priority over all other proceedings. There is a prima facie presumption that all tangible personal property imported or held in the taxing jurisdiction by any dealer is subject to a sales or use tax. If the rule is absolute, said dealer shall be prohibited from further pursuit of his business until such time as the delinquent tax, interest, penalties and costs have been paid. Any violation shall be considered contempt of court and punished according to law.
