An abstract or copy of the judgment entered under Section 32361 may be recorded with the county recorder of any county, and from the time of such recording, the amount of the taxes, interest, and penalty set forth in the judgment shall constitute a lien upon all the real property owned by the taxpayer in the county or which he may acquire afterwards and before the lien expires, which lien shall have the force, effect, and priority of a judgment lien and shall continue for 10 years from the time of the recording of the abstract unless sooner released or otherwise discharged. The lien may, within 10 years from the date of the recording of the abstract or within 10 years from the date of the last extension of the lien, be extended by recording a new abstract in the office of the county recorder of any county and from the time of such recording, the lien shall be extended to the real property in such county for 10 years unless sooner released or otherwise discharged. Execution shall issue upon such a judgment upon the request of the board in the same manner as execution may issue upon other judgments, and sales shall be held under the execution as prescribed in the Code of Civil Procedure. In all proceedings under this section the board shall act on behalf of the people of the State of California.
