Terms Used In Delaware Code Title 10 Sec. 9573
- Appeal: A request made after a trial, asking another court (usually the court of appeals) to decide whether the trial was conducted properly. To make such a request is "to appeal" or "to take an appeal." One who appeals is called the appellant.
- Defendant: In a civil suit, the person complained against; in a criminal case, the person accused of the crime.
- Docket: A log containing brief entries of court proceedings.
- Lien: A claim against real or personal property in satisfaction of a debt.
- Transcript: A written, word-for-word record of what was said, either in a proceeding such as a trial or during some other conversation, as in a transcript of a hearing or oral deposition.
(b) If it appears by the return to such execution that no goods can be found sufficient to satisfy the same or any balance thereof exceeding $5.00, besides interest and costs, the appellee, or the appellee’s executors or administrators may file a duly certified transcript of the docket entries of the judgment and execution with the prothonotary of the Superior Court in the county where such judgment was given. The prothonotary shall enter in the judgment docket the name of the party and sureties, the amount of the judgment, and by what justice rendered, the time from which interest runs, and the amount of the costs, with the true date of such filing and entry, and such judgment so transferred shall from that date become and be a lien on all the real estate of the debtor and the surety in the county, in the same manner and as fully as judgments rendered in the Superior Court are liens, and may be executed and enforced in the same way as judgments of the Court.
(c) Any joint debtor or surety shall be entitled to the remedies provided by subchapter II of Chapter 77 of Title 18.
