La. Revenue and Taxation § 47:2054
Whenever any tax collector fails to pay over parish taxes collected by him within thirty days after being required to do so by the police jury or other parochial authority by a written demand served by any constable of the parish, the police jury or other parochial authority shall have the right, on filing a certified copy of his bond in the office of the clerk of the district court and the return of the constable showing the demand made on him, to obtain from the clerk an execution against the collector for the amounts which he may have collected and failed to pay over, which execution shall have the same force and effect as the distress warrant or execution when issued by the auditor, and any property sold under it shall be sold for cash, without the benefit of appraisement.
In case of death or absence of any tax collector, or of his failure from any cause to pay the taxes into the treasury within the time prescribed by law for his final settlement, his sureties shall be authorized to take into their possession the list of taxes remaining unpaid and hold the same until his successor is appointed and qualified when the sureties shall immediately make a final settlement with the auditor and with the police jury, as provided by R.S. 47:2060, and in case the sureties are called upon to make good any shortage of the collector, the auditor is authorized to allow such sureties, if they settle without suit, the same commissions which the collector would have received had settlement been made by him.
