SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)
Limitations on enforcement of judgments in general district court. Makes it abundantly clear that the enforcement of judgments entered in the general district courts shall be 10 years, unless an abstract of such judgment is docketed in the judgment book of a circuit court. Upon the docketing of such judgment, the limitation for the enforcement of a district court judgment is the same as for a judgment of the circuit court, which is 20 years.
