Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:
1. That § 8-417 of the Code of Virginia be amended and reenacted as
follows:
§ 8-417. Upon the return of such writ of fieri facias by the officer
to the clerk’s office or to the court to which it is returnable, it shall be
the duty of the clerk thereof to enter the return of such officer on the
execution book or judgment docket wherein such execution is entered, as
the case may be, giving the date thereof. Any such writ, returned by the
officer with a notation that the money cannot be made may, when duly
entered by the clerk on the execution book or judgment docket, be
destroyed after two years from the date of the return.
