1. If a person is delinquent in the payment of any tax or fee administered by the Department or has not paid the amount of a deficiency determination, the Department may bring an action in a court of this state, a court of any other state or a court of the United States to collect the delinquent or deficient amount, penalties and interest. The action:
(a) May not be brought if the decision that the payment is delinquent or that there is a deficiency determination is on appeal to the Nevada Tax Commission pursuant to NRS 360.245.
(b) Must be brought not later than 3 years after the payment became delinquent or the determination became final or within 5 years after the last recording of an abstract of judgment or of a certificate constituting a lien for tax owed.
2. The Attorney General shall prosecute the action. The provisions of NRS and the Nevada Rules of Civil Procedure and Nevada Rules of Appellate Procedure relating to service of summons, pleadings, proofs, trials and appeals are applicable to the proceedings. In the action, a writ of attachment may issue. A bond or affidavit is not required before an attachment may be issued.
3. In the action, a certificate by the Department showing the delinquency is prima facie evidence of:
(a) The determination of the tax or fee or the amount of the tax or fee;
(b) The delinquency of the amounts; and
(c) The compliance by the Department with all of the procedures required by law related to the computation and determination of the amounts.
