A. In any case where the owner of a vessel or motor subject to the tax levied by the Oklahoma Vessel and Motor Excise Tax Act fails or refuses to pay the same, after proper demand therefor by an officer or agent of the Oklahoma Tax Commission, such officer or agent shall immediately report such failure to the Commission and shall, at the same time in case of failure to pay, seize and hold said vessel or motor, as provided by law in case of failure to pay the annual vessel or motor registration fee.
B. The Commission shall, upon demand of the owner of the vessel or motor, accord a hearing to said owner as provided by law and enter its findings and order accordingly. If it is determined by the Commission that said tax is due and payable, then it shall issue its warrant, directly to the sheriff of the county, ordering and directing the sale of such vessel or motor according to the same procedure provided by law for the sale of vessels and motors for failure to pay the required registration fee. Such seizure and sale may, at the time, include both the registration fee due and the excise tax levied by the Oklahoma Vessel and Motor Excise Tax Act, together with all costs of an advertisement and sale. The sale shall be conducted in the manner provided by law for the sale of personal property under execution.
