(a) At any time after the entry of judgment, while an execution may issue upon such judgment, and the same remains unsatisfied in whole or in part, the judgment creditor, or his representative in case of his death, may file a certified transcript of the judgment in the office of the recorder of deeds in either or both of the judicial divisions of the Virgin Islands.
(b) Upon the filing of such transcript, the recorder shall docket the same in the judgment docket of his office and note the same in the property register against such property or properties of the judgment debtor situate in the judicial division as may be requested by the judgment creditor in writing, which shall be filed with the transcript of the judgment. Such judgment may be noted against all after acquired property of the judgment debtor with like effect, upon the request of the judgment creditor.
(c) From the date of docketing the transcript of a judgment, such judgment shall be a lien against the judgment debtor's real property against which it is noted as provided in this section. A conveyance of real property or any portion thereof or interest therein shall be subject to the lien of a judgment unless such conveyance has been recorded at the time of docketing the transcript of such judgment.
(d) Whenever a period of ten years elapses after the entry of judgment without an execution being issued on such judgment, the lien thereof shall expire.
(e) The term “judgment” as used in the section shall include any determination by a court or the hearing officer (as defined in Title 16, section 341 of this Code) that a person's child support obligation is overdue. Notwithstanding the provision of subsection (d) of this section, a judgment for overdue child support shall not expire.
