Miss. Code § 27-65-40
If any officer or employee of the State of Mississippi, or any political subdivision thereof, does not pay the state sales tax for which he is responsible to pay within two (2) months after such sales tax becomes due and payable, he shall not be eligible to receive any salary or other emoluments of office from this state, or from any political subdivision thereof, until said sales tax, interest and penalty, if any, shall be paid in full. This provision shall apply to any installments of sales tax due, after the first installment, to require payment of the entire balance of tax due, plus interest and penalty, if any, before an officer or employee of the State of Mississippi, or any political subdivision thereof, is eligible to draw any salary or other emoluments of office. The Tax Commissioner is required to furnish the State Fiscal Officer or appropriate fiscal officer of the political subdivision, as the case may be, with notice that sales taxes have not been paid. This notice shall serve as a stop order upon any salary due any employee or officer. Disregard of this notice creating personal liability against such fiscal officer for the full amount of the sales tax due, plus interest and penalty. For purposes of this section, a political subdivision includes, but is not limited to, a county or separate school district, institution of higher learning, state college or university, or state community college. The sales tax may be paid with uncertified check during such time and under such regulations as the Commissioner shall prescribe, but if the check so received is not paid by the bank on which it is drawn, the taxpayer for whom such check is tendered shall remain liable for the payment of the tax and all penalties, the same as if such check had not been tendered.
