Upon the failure of any person to pay any contribution due to the state within 30 days from its due date, the commissioner of the department of employment security or his duly authorized representative charged by law with its collection shall add thereto such penalty or interest or both as shall be prescribed by law. The attorney general may collect any such contribution by a civil action, or the commissioner or his duly authorized representative charged by law with the collection of such contribution may make out and sign a warrant directed to any serving officer for distraint upon the goods, realty or body of such person. Each serving officer so receiving a warrant shall make return to the party making out such warrant within a period of 30 days from its receipt by him. To each warrant placed in the hands of any serving officer shall be attached an itemized bill, certified by the party making out such warrant to be a true and correct statement of the total amount of contribution due from such person. Any serving officer deputed to serve a warrant drawn under the provisions of this law shall, so far as such warrant is concerned, have, mutatis mutandis, all the powers vested in tax collectors and sheriffs under the provisions of RSA 80; shall proceed pursuant to the terms of one or more of said statutes; shall make return to the party making out such warrant within 10 days of the completion of service and shall collect from such person, in addition to the amount shown on such warrant, his fees and charges, which shall be those authorized by statute for serving officers, as in all other civil actions.
