A certified copy of an order imposing a civil penalty against an unlicensed contractor
may be recorded in the public records and thereafter shall constitute a lien against
any real or personal property owned by the violator. Upon petition to the circuit
court, such order may be enforced in the same manner as court judgment by the sheriffs
of this state, including a levy against personal property; however, such order shall
not be deemed to be a court judgment except for enforcement purposes. A civil penalty
imposed pursuant to this division shall continue to accrue until the violator comes
into compliance or until judgment is rendered in a suit to foreclose on a lien filed
pursuant to this section, whichever occurs first. After three months from the filing
of any such lien, which remains unpaid, the CLCA may authorize the county attorney
to foreclose on the lien. No lien created pursuant to the provisions of this division
may be foreclosed on real property which is a homestead under section 4, article X
of the State Constitution.
