Current through Register Vol. 54, No. 38, September 21, 2024

(a) Except as provided by subdivision (b), if an interest in real property subject to a lien of a judgment has been acquired by a terre-tenant, then the lien of the judgment on the property shall be revived only if the terre-tenant within the five-year period of Rule 3023(c) or Rule 3031.1(a) joins in an agreement to revive or is made a party to the writ of revival.

(b) If a writ of revival or an agreement to revive is entered in the judgment index against the defendant at a time when a terre-tenant's deed or other evidence of title is of record, but without the joinder of the terre-tenant, the lien of the judgment may be revived as to the terre-tenant within five years after the recording of the terre-tenant's deed or other evidence of title by (1) agreement between the plaintiff and the terre-tenant alone or between the plaintiff, defendant and terre-tenant, or (2) a writ of revival issued against the terre-tenant alone, or against the defendant and terre-tenant jointly. The lien shall continue as to the terre-tenant for the same period as it continues against the defendant, when it must be revived against both parties.
