Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. R. 42-1-5-.02 - Payment and Collection of Assessments

(1) Any assessment established in accordance with the Act and these Rules will constitute a personal debt of every person so assessed and will be due and payable to the Commission when payment is called for by the Commission. If the person fails to pay the assessment, then the Commission may file an action against the person in a court of competent jurisdiction for collection of the assessment.

(2) If a person duly assessed fails to pay to the Commission the amount assessed, then the Commission may add to the unpaid assessment an amount not exceeding 10 percent of the unpaid assessment to defray the cost of enforcing the collection of the unpaid assessment.

(3) These provisions will be cumulative, and any other remedies may be pursued concurrently until satisfaction is obtained.

(4) Any penalty recovered will become a part of the principal assessment levied and will be for the use of the Commission.
