Procedure as to defaults

ยง 475. Procedure as to defaults. If the surety contests the default
the court shall hear and determine the issue. In the event that the
court finds that a default has been suffered, it shall make an order
specifying the amount in default and forfeiting the undertaking or cash
deposit to the extent of such default. A certified copy of such order
shall be filed in the county clerk's office with a certified copy of the
undertaking and thereupon the said clerk shall docket the same in the
book kept by the clerk for the docketing of judgments, as if the same
was a transcript of a judgment directed for the amount of such sum in
default. The certified copy of the undertaking and of the order shall be
the judgment record. Such judgment shall be a lien on all of the real
estate and collectible out of the real and personal property of the
surety. An execution may be issued to collect the amount thereof in the
same manner as upon a judgment recovered in any court of record.
