16-65-113. Entry into judgment book — Index. (a) The clerk must keep among the records of the court a book to be called the judgment book. (b) The entry in the judgment book must show the names of the plaintiff and defendant and, if more than one (1), then of the first-named of each in the pleadings with the words “and others”, the term at which the judgment was entered, and a reference to the order book and page at which the judgment is to be found, with a space left for the entry of the satisfaction of the judgment. (c)(1) The clerk shall immediately after the rendition of any judgment or decree enter it in the judgment book, in which shall be alphabetically cross-indexed all the judgments of the court, according to the surnames of the plaintiff and defendant. If there is more than one (1) plaintiff or defendant, then the names of all plaintiffs and defendants shall be so indexed and cross-indexed. (2) It shall be so arranged that all the judgments in the case of plaintiffs whose surnames commence with the same letter and all of each term shall immediately succeed each other. (d) If a clerk scans judgments so that they appear in full on an internet-based system or other similar electronic system and are searchable by name and case number, the requirements of this subchapter no longer apply.
