§ 19-3-53. Collection of fines imposed by board.

When a fine shall be imposed upon any person by the board of supervisors, by virtue of any provision of law, the board shall cause the person to be summoned to appear at a succeeding meeting to show cause why the judgment for such fine shall not be made final. If sufficient cause be not shown at the return-day of the summons, the judgment shall be made final, with costs, and the clerk shall issue a capias pro finem therefor, as for fines in the circuit court, which shall be made returnable at the next regular meeting of the board. If good cause be shown, the board may set aside the fine, upon payment of costs. The clerk and sheriff shall be entitled to like fees, for services, as upon similar proceedings in the circuit court.
