(b) Docketing of judgment of court of United States. A transcript of the judgment of a court of the United States rendered or filed within the state may be filed in the office of the clerk of any county and upon such filing the clerk shall docket the judgment in the same manner and with the same effect as a judgment entered in the supreme court within the county.

(c) Form of docketing. A judgment is docketed by making an entry in the proper docket book as follows: 1. under the surname of the judgment debtor first named in the judgment, the entry shall consist of:

(i) the name and last known address of each judgment debtor and his trade or profession if stated in the judgment;

(ii) the name and last known address of the judgment creditor;

(iii) the sum recovered or directed to be paid in figures;

(iv) the date and time the judgment-roll was filed;

(v) the date and time of docketing;

(vi) the court and county in which judgment was entered; and

(vii) the name and office address of the attorney for the judgment creditor; 2. under the surname of every other judgment debtor, if any, the entry shall consist of his name and last known address and an appropriate cross-reference to the first entry. If no address is known for the judgment debtor or judgment creditor, an affidavit executed by the party at whose instance the judgment is docketed or his attorney shall be filed stating that the affiant has no knowledge of an address.

(d) A county clerk may adopt a new docketing system utilizing electro-mechanical, electronic or any other method he deems suitable for maintaining the dockets.
