§ 9614. Taxes as personal debt to State
(a)All taxes required to be paid under this chapter and all increases, interest, and penalty thereon that become due and payable to the Commissioner shall constitute a personal debt from the person liable to pay the same to the State of Vermont to be recovered in a civil action under this section.
(b)Action may be brought by the Attorney General at the instance of the Commissioner in the name of the State to recover the amount of taxes, penalties, and interest due from such person, provided the action is brought within six years after the same are due. The action shall be returnable in the county where the person resides, if a resident of the State, and if a nonresident, the action shall be returnable to the County of Washington. The limitation of six years in this section shall not apply to a suit to collect taxes, penalties, interest, and costs when the person filed a fraudulent return or failed to file a return when the same was due.
