For failure to satisfy any lien or encumbrance within 30 days after final payment has been made, the lien holder shall be fined not less than $25 nor more than $100. Proceedings for enforcement of these provisions shall be made by the Secretary of Transportation in the office of any justice of the peace in the State. Should any lien holder fail, refuse or neglect to satisfy any lien or encumbrance within 60 days after final payment thereon has been made, the Secretary, after due and timely notice given to the lien holder, may, upon the presentation of convincing evidence which the Secretary shall retain in the Secretary’s office and file with the lien registrar, satisfy such lien or encumbrance recorded in the lien register.
