1. On or before January 15 of each year, the district attorney shall report in writing to the board of county commissioners of the county all taxable real and personal property in the county unassessed. At that time the county assessor of such county may appear and, by testimony under oath or by other sworn proof, explain to the board the reason for such nonassessment.
2. If, after hearing such proofs, the board shall be satisfied that such nonassessment was excusable in the county assessor, the board shall cause an order to that effect to be entered upon its minutes. If the board shall be satisfied that any nonassessment was not excusable, then the board shall cause an order to that effect to be entered on its minutes, and the district attorney shall demand of the county assessor all the state and county taxes due and payable upon such property for the preceding year. If the same shall not be paid by the county assessor within 10 days from such demand, then the district attorney forthwith shall commence an action in a court of competent jurisdiction against the county assessor and his or her sureties for the collection, in one suit, of all sums payable by the county assessor.
3. If it can be proven that any nonassessment was caused by the refusal of the owner, agent or claimant of such property, or of the person or persons having it in possession or under their control or charge, to give a list of it to the county assessor, the county assessor shall not be liable; but the person or persons whose refusal to give the county assessor such list (and whose duty it was under the law to give such list) caused the omission shall pay double the amount of the taxes that would have been imposed upon the property had it been assessed.
