If the court in a proceeding under §26-6-206 finds that the foreign-country judgment is entitled to recognition under this part, then, to the extent that the foreign-country judgment grants or denies recovery of a sum of money, the foreign-country judgment is:

  2. Enforceable in the same manner and to the same extent as a judgment rendered in this state.
