N.D. Cent. Code § 32-12-04: How judgment collected

No execution may issue against the state on any judgment, but whenever a final judgment against the state has been obtained in any action other than an action under chapter 32-12.2, the clerk shall make and furnish to the office of the budget a duly certified copy of the judgment. After approval, and if funds have been appropriated therefor, the office of the budget, in due course, shall prepare and issue a warrant for the amount of such judgment and deliver the same to the person entitled thereto.
