after deducting all just credits and offsets, and the default of such employer. Upon such filing the Administrator shall cause a copy of the notice to be mailed to
the employer. The county recorder shall file the notice of claim of lien, which file must be indexed. 3. The lien so created constitutes a lien upon all property, either real or personal,
of the employer within the county in which the notice of claim of lien is filed. 4. The lien hereby created may be foreclosed by a suit in the district court in the
manner provided by law for the foreclosure of other liens on real or personal property. 5. Any lien, as provided in this section, may be released, compromised or satisfied
by the Administrator, and the property against which a lien is claimed may be released
