(a) When a judgment is rendered against the board of county commissioners of any county, or against any county officer in an action prosecuted by or against the county officer in the officer’s name of office, where the judgment should be paid by the county, no execution shall issue upon the judgment. The judgment shall be levied and collected by tax, as other county charges. When so collected the judgment shall be paid by the county treasurer to the person to whom it is adjudged, upon the delivery of a proper voucher therefor.

(b) The county shall not be required in any proceeding in any court to give security for costs on appeal, or any stay or supersedeas bond, where the county is plaintiff or defendant.
