15-16-34. Filing and docketing of affidavit of renewal--Copy. If the judgment was rendered in a court of this state, the affidavit for renewal shall be filed with the clerk of the court where such judgment was first docketed. If the judgment filed and docketed was a foreign judgment, the affidavit for renewal may be filed with the clerk of any court where the judgment has been docketed. The clerk of the court immediately shall enter on the docket of the original judgment, the fact of renewal, the date of renewal, and the amount for which the judgment is renewed. The affidavit of renewal upon receipt by the clerk of the court shall be given a current filing date, and filed, docketed, and indexed in the current judgment records using the same method as for a newly received original judgment. A copy of the affidavit of renewal and the docket entries thereon, certified by the clerk of court wherein the same is filed, may be likewise filed and docketed and indexed in the current judgment records in any other county of the state in which a transcript of the original judgment was filed.
