(a) Following an administrative hearing, the administrative hearing officer shall issue an order stating all of the following:
(1) Whether the person charged with the civil violation is liable for the violation.
(2) If the person is found to be liable, the amount of the fine assessed against the person, along with the fees and costs provided for herein.
(b) Orders issued under this section may be filed in the office of the judge of probate in any county in Alabama, and shall operate as a judicial lien in the same manner and with the same weight and effect as any other civil judgment filed therein.
(c) A person who is found liable after an administrative hearing may challenge that finding of civil liability in the Jefferson County Circuit Court, by filing a petition for judicial review with the Jefferson County Circuit Court. The petition for judicial review shall be filed not later than the 14th day after the date on which the administrative hearing officer entered the finding of civil liability. The filing of a petition for judicial review shall stay the enforcement of the fine. After a petition for judicial review has been filed, civil liability shall be determined by the circuit court by trial de novo pursuant to the jurisdiction granted in Section 12-11-30.
