|
| (3) An order of forfeiture made under the preceding provisions of this section shall be enforced in the same manner as though the forfeiture was a seizure duly effected in execution of a decree in an action under the Civil Procedure Code, and for the purposes of such execution the Attorney-General shall be deemed to be the judgment-creditor. |
