(a) Filing. In any case where there has been a refusal or neglect to pay any tax, or to discharge any liability with respect to any tax, whether or not levy has been made, the attorney general and reporter or the attorney general and reporter's delegate, or the staff attorney of the department of revenue or the staff attorney's delegate, at the request of the commissioner or the commissioner's delegate, may direct a civil action to be filed in chancery court to enforce the lien of the state under this title with respect to such tax or liability or to subject any property, of whatever nature, of the delinquent, or in which the delinquent has any right, title, or interest, to the payment of such tax or liability.

If the state is not a party to a civil action or suit, the state may intervene in such action or suit to assert any lien arising under this title on the property that is the subject of such action or suit.
