Section 85-11-9 - Perfection of tax lien; tax lien as authority for issuance of writs and warrants(1) When a notice of tax lien is enrolled by the department in the tax lien registry, the tax lien is perfected and shall be attached to all of the existing and after-acquired property of the debtor, both real and personal, tangible and intangible, which is located in any and all counties within the State of Mississippi.(2) The perfected tax lien shall be valid as against mortgagees, pledgees, entrusters, purchasers, judgment creditors, and other persons from the time of enrollment in the tax lien registry.(3) The amount of the tax lien shall be a debt due the State of Mississippi and shall remain a lien upon all property and rights to property belonging to the debtor, both real and personal, tangible and intangible, which is located in any and all counties within the State of Mississippi, including choses in action, with the same force and like effect as any enrolled judgment of a court of record. Interest and penalty shall accrue on the tax lien at the same rate and with the same restrictions, if any, as specified by statute for the accrual of interest and penalty for the type of tax or taxes for which the tax lien was issued.(4) The notice of tax lien shall serve as authority for issuance of writs of execution, writs of attachment, writs of garnishment, or other remedial writs. In addition to those writs, the notice of tax lien shall also serve as authority for the commissioner to issue warrants under Sections 27-7-57, 27-13-31 and 27-65-59 for the collection of the tax lien. The tax lien enrolled in the tax lien registry shall constitute the judgment enrolled for the payment of the amount of tax, penalties, and interest referred to in Sections 27-7-57, 27-13-31 and 27-65-59, but the warrant issued for a tax lien enrolled on a tax lien registry shall direct and authorize the special agent to seize and sell the real and personal property found anywhere within this state that belongs to the taxpayer against whom the tax lien was enrolled and not just property in a specific county. Once issued, the execution of the warrants shall be in accordance with Section 27-3-33(4) for the levy on salaries, compensation or other monies due the delinquent taxpayer; Sections 27-7-61 through 27-7-67 in regard to income tax and withholding tax; Sections 27-13-35 through 27-13-41 for franchise tax; and Sections 27-65-63 through 27-65-69 for sales tax and any other tax or fee administered by the department that utilizes the administrative provisions of the sales tax law in the administration of the tax or fee. Under warrants issued for the tax liens enrolled in the tax lien registry, any property, real or personal, within the State of Mississippi is subject to levy under Section 27-3-33(4) if the person that owes the salary, compensation or other monies to the debtor is subject to service of process in this state.Added by Laws, 2014, ch. 412, HB 487, 5, eff. 1/1/2015.
