Text

It shall be sufficient to allege in the complaint that the defendant is indebted to the plaintiff in
the amount of the forfeiture claimed according to the provisions of the statute which imposes it,
specifying the section and chapter containing such statute. When such section imposes a
forfeiture for several offenses or delinquencies, it shall specify the particular offense or
delinquency for which the action is brought, with a demand for judgment for the amount of such
forfeiture. In case the defendant is not a resident of the state, an attachment may be issued in
such action as in an ordinary civil action against nonresidents. Any such action may be brought
for and the judgment therein may include as many forfeitures as the defendant may have
incurred prior to its commencement.
