§ 794 — Proceedings if fine not collected

§ 794. Proceedings if fine not collected. Where it appears, by the\nreturn, that a fine remains uncollected, and it does not appear that the\nsheriff has the delinquent in custody, the district attorney must, if he\nhas good reason to believe that the sheriff might, with due diligence,\nhave collected the fine, or arrested and detained the delinquent,\ncommence an action against the sheriff, in the name of the people.\nOtherwise he must direct the clerk to issue a new warrant, or to include\nthe fine in the schedule, annexed to the next warrant, to be issued by\nhim. A new warrant may, from time to time, be issued, or the fine may be\nincluded in the schedule annexed to a subsequent warrant, until it is\ncollected.\n
