(2) If an order or warrant issued by a state agency or officer was docketed in the judgment docket of a circuit court of any county before October 3, 1989, the officer or agency may cause such an order or warrant to be transferred to and recorded in the County Clerk Lien Record of the same county in which the order or warrant was originally docketed as provided in subsection (3) of this section. An order or warrant so transferred shall continue the lien created by the original docketing of the order or warrant.
(3) Upon request, the clerk of a circuit court shall supply to an officer or agency a certified copy of any order or warrant docketed in the judgment docket of a circuit court before October 3, 1989. That certified copy may then be recorded in the County Clerk Lien Record of the county where the circuit court is located in the same manner and with the same effect provided for the recording of original orders and warrants. Upon recording of the order or warrant, the agency or officer shall as soon as possible thereafter cause to be returned to the clerk of the circuit court that prepared the certified copy, the original of that certified copy reflecting the recording of the copy in the County Clerk Lien Record and the date of the recording. The clerk shall then cause to be entered in the register a notation reflecting the recording of the order or warrant in the County Clerk Lien Record and the date of the recording.
(4) Nothing in this section shall be construed to affect the status of liens created by, or require the transfer from, any judgment docket to any County Clerk Lien Record of any order or warrant docketed in a judgment docket before October 3, 1989. [1989 c.706 §5; 2003 c.576 §196]
