724 ARTICLE 56.

still unsatisfied more than thirty (30) days after the same became final,
as aforesaid, and shall remain so suspended and shall not be renewed, nor
shall any motor vehicle be thereafter registered in his name while any such
judgment remains unstayed, unsatisfied and subsisting and until every
such judgment is satisfied or discharged and until the said person gives
proof of his ability to respond in damages as required in Section 187A
hereof, for future accidents. It shall be the duty of the clerk of the
court, or of the court where it has no clerk, in which any such judgment
is rendered, to forward immediately after the expiration of said thirty
(30) days, as aforesaid, upon request of the judgment creditor, to the Com-
missioner a certified copy of such judgment or a transcript thereof, as
aforesaid. In the event the defendant is a non-resident, it shall be the duty
of the Commissioner to transmit to the Commissioner of Motor Vehicles
or officer in charge of the issuance of operators' permits and registration
certificates of the State or Province of which the defendant is a resident,
a certified copy of the said judgment. If after such proof has been given,
any other such judgment shall be recovered against such person for an
accident occurring before such proof was given, but after January 1, 1932,
such license or licenses and certificate or certificates shall again be and
remain so suspended, and no other such license or certificate shall be
issued to such person while any such judgment remains unsatisfied and
subsisting, as aforesaid.

or killed, the sum of $10, 000 has been credited upon any judgment or
judgments rendered in excess of that amount for personal injury to or the
death of more than one person as the result of any one accident; or

(3) When $1, 000 has been credited upon any judgment or judgments
rendered in excess of that amount for damage to property as the result of
any one accident;

resulting from the ownership, maintenance, use or operation of a motor
vehicle, then and in such event, such payment or payments shall be deemed
a satisfaction of such judgment or judgments for the purposes of this
section only.

And provided further, that a judgment debtor to whom this section
applies may, for the sole purpose of giving authority to the Commissioner
to authorize the judgment debtor to operate a motor vehicle thereafter,
on due notice to the judgment creditor, apply to the court in which the
trial judgment was obtained for the privilege of paying such judgment
in installments, and the court, in its discretion and without prejudice to
any other legal remedies which the judgment creditor may have, may so
order, fixing the amounts and times of payment of the installments. While
