If any administrative order or decision that imposes a penalty is issued pursuant to this chapter or Part 2 (commencing with Section 78000) of Division 45, the administrative order or decision has become final, and, if applicable, a petition for judicial review of the final order or decision has not been filed within the time limits prescribed in Section 11523 of the Government Code, the department may apply to the clerk of the appropriate court for a judgment to collect the administrative penalty. The departmentâs application, which shall include a certified copy of the final administrative order or decision, constitutes a sufficient showing to warrant issuance of the judgment. The court clerk shall enter the judgment immediately in conformity with the application. The judgment so entered has the same force and effect as, and is subject to all the provisions of law relating to, a judgment in a civil action, and may be enforced in the same manner as any other judgment of the court in which it is entered.
