If the commissioner has cause to believe and believes that the collection of taxes due by any taxpayer will be jeopardized by delay, he may assess such taxes immediately, together with damages and interest, and may immediately file with the circuit clerk a notice of tax lien for sales taxes, damages, and interest and issue a jeopardy warrant under official seal directed to the sheriff of any county of this state or to a special agent of the tax commission.
The circuit clerk shall proceed as provided in Section 27-65-57 upon receiving a copy of the notice of tax lien from the commissioner. Any tax determined to be due under a jeopardy assessment shall be a debt due to the state, and, when thus enrolled upon the judgment roll of the county, shall be the equivalent of any enrolled judgment of a court of record, and shall constitute a lien on all property and rights to property of the judgment debtor. The sheriff, or the special agent, as the case may be, upon receipt of the jeopardy warrant, shall immediately proceed in accordance with Section 27-65-63. However, where property has been seized under authority of a jeopardy warrant, the taxpayer may file a petition for a hearing and revision of the assessment with the commissioner at any time prior to the date of the sale, provided such taxpayer executes a supersedeas surety bond in a surety company authorized to do business and doing business in this state for double the amount of the assessment. Such bond shall be conditioned that any taxes, damages, interest and costs adjudged to be due after the hearing will be paid promptly upon order of the state tax commission.
