If a judgment rendered against the principal on a bond filed pursuant to subsection 1 is not satisfied within 60 days after it has become final, the judgment creditor may, for the judgment creditor’s own use and benefit and at the judgment creditor’s own expense, bring an action in the name of the State against the company or persons executing the bond, including an action or proceeding to foreclose any lien that may exist upon the real property of a person who has executed the bond.
