15-16-35. Operation as judgment lien--Continuation of lien--Execution. The entry and docketing of an affidavit of renewal of a judgment shall operate to continue the lien of the judgment to the extent of the balance due on the judgment as shown by the affidavit on all real property, except the homestead, of the judgment debtor or debtors in the county where the same is docketed which he or they may have at the time of such docketing or may acquire subsequently in such county, for a period of ten years from the time of the docketing of such affidavit. The filing of a certified copy of such affidavit of renewal and the docket entries thereon in a county wherein a transcript of the original judgment was docketed likewise shall continue and extend the lien of the judgment in such county. An execution may issue upon the judgment as renewed under the same conditions and with the same force and effect within such renewal period as upon the judgment originally rendered and entered at the date of such renewal, and all other remedies for the enforcement of judgments shall apply to the enforcement of such renewed judgment.
