HCS/SB 470 - This act allows a judgement in Associate Circuit Court to be a lien on real estate if the judgment is final and not appealed. The clerk of each Division of Circuit Court is required to enter abstract of judgement within five days of rendition. The value of a homestead which is exempt from attachment and execution is raised from $8,000 to $15,000.

This act is similar to portions of SB 446 (2003).
