Section 43
Distress in the event of failure to pay damages or costs
The authority shall, in the event that any damages or costs awarded to them by a court are not forthwith paid, have power to recover the same by way of distress under a warrant issued by the
Court.
(2)
The Court may order any person against whom a warrant of distress has been levied under this section to be kept in safe custody until return can be made to such warrant, unless such person gives a security by way of recognizance or otherwise for his appearance before the Court on the day appointed for such return.
(3)
If it appears to the Court by the admission of the person aforesaid or otherwise that no sufficient distress can be had within the jurisdiction of the Court for the purpose of recovering the damages or costs awarded to the authority under this section, the Court shall commit such offender to prison for a term not exceeding six months unless such damage or costs are sooner paid and satisfied.
