5. Any order giving leave to register shall be drawn up by or on behalf of the judgment creditor. Where the order is made on a summons the order shall be served on the judgment debtor, but where the order is made on an ex parte application no service of the order on the judgment debtor shall be required.

6. The order giving leave to register the judgment shall state the time within which the judgment debtor is to be entitled to apply to set aside the registration. Such time, where the judgment debtor is, or is ordinarily resident, within the jurisdiction shall ordinarily be fourteen days, and when the judgment debtor is, or is ordinarily resident, out of the jurisdiction shall be such time as the court may order.

7. The register of judgments ordered to be registered under the Ordinance shall be kept in the Registry of the Supreme Court under the direction of the Registrar. The judgment shall be registered therein in accordance with the order giving leave to register it.

8. The register shall be arranged in alphabetical order in the surname of the judgment debtor, and there shall be entered in the register the date of the order for registration and of the registration, the name, title, trade or business and usual or last-known place of abode or business of the judgment debtor and judgment creditor, and the amount for which the judgment is signed, any special directions in the order for registration as to such registration or execution thereon, and the particulars of any execution issued thereon.

9. Notice in writing of the registration of the judgment shall be served on the judgment debtor within a reasonable time after such registration. Such notice shall (in the absence of an order by the court as to the mode of service thereof) be served on the judgment debtor by personal service (with power to order substituted service or service out of the jurisdiction or both) as in the case of a writ of summons, but the court may at any stage of the proceedings authorize or direct some other mode of service and the same shall be effected in accordance with such authority or direction.

10. The notice of registration shall contain full particulars of the judgment registered and of the order for such registration and shall state the name and address of the judgment creditor or of his solicitor or agent on whom and at which service of any summons issued by the judgment debtor may be effected. The notice shall state that the defendant is entitled, if he has grounds for doing so, to apply to set aside the registration and shall also state the number of days for applying to set aside the registration limited by the order giving leave to register.
