U.S. Code as of:
01/19/04
Section 1962. Lien
Every judgment rendered by a district court within a State shall
be a lien on the property located in such State in the same manner,
to the same extent and under the same conditions as a judgment of a
court of general jurisdiction in such State, and shall cease to be
a lien in the same manner and time. This section does not apply to
judgments entered in favor of the United States. Whenever the law
of any State requires a judgment of a State court to be registered,
recorded, docketed or indexed, or any other act to be done, in a
particular manner, or in a certain office or county or parish
before such lien attaches, such requirements shall apply only if
the law of such State authorizes the judgment of a court of the
United States to be registered, recorded, docketed, indexed or
otherwise conformed to rules and requirements relating to judgments
of the courts of the State.
