same shall have been filed in the office of the recorder of Cook county, which transcripts shall contain the names of the parties to the suits, the kinds of actions, the amounts of the judgments or the general nature and effect of the decrees, as the case may be, and the dates on which the judgments and decrees were rendered: Provided, however, that no such orders, judgments or decrees shall be liens upon or affect registered land or any estate or interest therein until a certificate under the hand and official seal of the clerk of the municipal court, stating the date and purport of the judgment, decree or order, is filed in the office of the register of titles of said Cook county, and a memorial of the same is entered upon the register of the last certificate of title to be affected. All other judgments of the municipal court shall have the same force, be of the same effect and be executed and enforced in the same manner as the judgments of the circuit court of Cook county. But no such judgment shall be a lien upon the real estate of the person against whom it is obtained, excepting from the time of the filing of a certified transcript thereof in the office of the recorder of Cook county, which transcript shall contain the names of the parties to the suit, the kind of action, the amount of the judgment and the date upon which the same was rendered: Provided, however, that no such judgment shall be a lien upon or affect registered land or any estate or interest therein until a certified transcript thereof is filed in the office of the register of titles of Cook county and a memorial of the same is entered upon the register of the last certificate of title to be affected. The recorder of Cook county shall provide and keep in his office for said municipal court well bound books for entering therein an alphabetical docket of all judgments and decrees rendered in said municipal court as is now required by law for docketing judgments and decrees rendered in circuit courts, and shall forthwith, after the filing of any transcript herein provided for, enter the same, together with the hour, day, month and year of the filing of such certified transcript and the general number thereof. In all cases executions issued on judgments of the municipal court, when against the lands and tenements, goods and chattels of the defendants within the city of Chicago, shall be directed to the bailiff, or in case he is disqualified from acting, then to the sheriff of Cook county, and shall be liens upon all the personal property of the defendants situated within the city of Chicago, from the time they are delivered to the bailiff, or to the sheriff, to the same extent as executions issued out of the circuit court of Cook county when delivered to the sheriff, and may be levied upon the property, real or persona! of the defendants situated at any place within the city of Chicago, to the same extent as executions issued out of the circuit court of Cook county; but no execution upon a judgment, other than one of the first class or one of the second class, shall be a lien upon the real estate of the defendants, until the same shall be levied thereon and a certificate of such levy filed in the recorder's office of the county in which such real estate is situated, and, in case of registered land or any estate or interest therein, until a certified transcript of the judgment is filed in the office of the register of titles of Cook county and a memorial of the same is entered upon the register of the last certificate of title to be affected. Executions against the lands and

tenements, goods and chattels of the defendants outside of the city of Chicago, shall be directed to the sheriff, or in case he is disqualified from acting, to the coroner of the county in which such lands and tenements, goods and chattels are situated.

§ 64. That any judgment of the municipal court, for the payment of money, when the amount due thereon, exclusive of interest and costs, exceeds twenty-five dollars ($25), may also be proceeded under in the following manner :

First. At any time within seven years after the entry of such judgment and upon the return wholly or partly unsatisfied of an execution issued thereon, the judgment creditor shall be entitled to a citation requiring the judgment debtor, or any other person whom, or corporation which the judgment creditor may believe to have personal property of the debtor not exempt from execution or garnishment, or to be indebted to said judgment debtor in a sum exceeding the amount exempt by law from garnishment, to attend before the court and be examined under oath concerning such debtor's property at a time and place specified in the citation, or after the issuance of an execution against the lands, tenements, goods and chattels of any judgment debtor, and before the return thereof, upon proof by affidavit to the satisfaction of the court, that there is reasonable ground to believe that the judgment debtor has property in the city of Chicago, which he unjustly refuses to apply towards the satisfaction of the judgment, whether subject to execution or not, citation may issue as above provided.

Second. Where it appears from the examination or testimony taken pursuant to the provisions of this section that the judgment debtor has in his possession or under his control money or other property belonging to him and not exempt from execution, or that money, choses in action, or one or more articles of personal property capable of delivery, and the right of possession of which in said judgment debtor is not substantially disputed, and which are not exempt by law from execution or garnishment, are in the possession or under the control of such other person or corporation, the court may, in its discretion, make an order. directing the judgment debtor, or such other person or corporation, immediately to pay the money, assign the chose in action or deliver the articles of personal property to the bailiff of the municipal court to be by him collected or sold at public sale and the proceeds thereof applied towards the satisfaction of said execution and if the amount of money, or the proceeds of such collection or sale shall exceed the amount due upon such execution and the costs accrued thereon, the overplus shall be paid to the said judgment debtor.

Third. Said citation may, in the discretion of the court, require the person or corporation to attend and be examined before one of the masters in chancery of the court, or a special commissioner to be appointed by the court, designated in said citation, and after said examination said master or special commissioner must certify to the court all evidence and other proceedings had before him pursuant to the citation. Fourth. Upon every examination under this section each answer of the party to the citation or witness examined must be under the oath of such party, or, if such party be a corporation, under the oath of an officer thereof, and the court may, in its discretion, specify the officer.

Either party may be examined as a witness in his own behalf and may produce and examine other witnesses as upon the trial of any action. The court, master or special commissioner may postpone any hearing hereunder from time to time as it may think proper and may issue subpoenas requiring the presence of any witness desired by either party. The court shall have the power to compel the attendance of any party to the citation or witness duly subpoenaed by attachment of the person of such party or witness and the refusal of a party to such citation, or of a witness, to attend or answer proper questions upon the hearing shall be adjudged a contempt of court, and shall be punishable in the discretion of the court by fine or imprisonment in the county jail or house of correction for a period not to exceed six months.

Fifth. The court may tax as costs a fixed sum consisting of witness fees, stenographer's fees, master's or commissioner's fees and other disbursements, and direct the payment thereof out of any money which. may come into the hands of the bailiff as a part of the costs of said proceedings.

Sixth. Where the judgment debtor has been examined and property applicable to the payment of the judgment has not been discovered in the course of the proceedings hereunder, the court may fix a sum consisting of witness fees and other disbursements made by said judgment debtor, including stenographer's fees, and the amount so fixed shall, in the discretion of the court, be paid to such judgment debtor, and unless paid within the time fixed by the court an execution shall issue against the judgment creditor and be served and enforced as other executions. Seventh. Any order made hereunder may be served by delivering a certified or sworn copy thereof to the person against whom the same is made and such service may be made by the bailiff or by any party to the proceedings or by his attorney or agent.

Eighth. All other proceedings hereunder shall be regulated by such rules as may be adopted by a majority of the judges of the municipal court or by the Supreme Court, in accordance with the provisions of this Act.

§ 2. That this Act shall be submitted to a vote of the legal voters of the city of Chicago at the first regular municipal, judicial, general or special election which shall occur in said city of Chicago, after the first day of July, A.
