N.D. Cent. Code § 65-04-26
The claim of the organization in bankruptcy, probate, insolvency, and receivership proceedings for premiums in default and penalties is a lien with the same priority as prior income tax liens, except that this lien is not enforceable against a purchaser, including a lien creditor, of real estate or personal property for valuable consideration without notice. Notice of this lien must be filed in the place and manner provided for in section 57-38-49. A certificate of the organization that premiums and penalties are due for the period stated in the certificate is prima facie evidence of this fact. In any action brought for the recovery of premiums in default and penalties, the remedies of garnishment or attachment, or both, are available. No exemptions except absolute exemptions under section 28-22-02 may be allowed against any levy under execution pursuant to judgment recovered in the action.
