Syllabus

<p>1. Judgment Lien.—Though an execution may have issued within twelve months from the rendition of the judgment which authorized it, yet whenever there is a failure to procure its issuance for more than one year thereafter, the lien secured by it upon the land of the judgment debtor, ceases.</p> <p>1. Registration.—The registration of the abstract of a judgment, which does not substantially describe the judgment, gives no notice, and fixes no lien. Thus, a judgment which was rendered as a judgment in favor of Joan Burkbead and William Burkhead against W. T. and J. O. Roberts fixed no lien for a judgment rendered in a cause in which Joan Bankhead and Willian Bankhead were plaintiffs and W. T. Roberts and J. 0. Roberts were defendants.</p>
