The trial judge in municipal and justice courts shall show on the docket and the trial judge in courts of record shall show on the minutes: Whether a chemical test was given and the results of the test, if any; and Whether conviction was based in whole or in part on the results of such a test. The abstract of the court record shall show the date of the conviction, the results of the test if there was one, and the penalty, so that a record of same may be made by the Department of Public Safety. For the purposes of Section 63-11-30, a bond forfeiture shall operate as and be considered as a conviction. A trial court clerk who fails to provide a true and correct copy of the traffic ticket, citation or affidavit evidencing the arrest that resulted in the conviction and a copy of the abstract of the court record within five (5) days of the availability of that information as required in subsection (1) of this section is guilty of a civil violation and shall be fined One Hundred Dollars ($100.00), for which civil fine the clerk bears sole and personal responsibility.
