  3  5 lien index as required for judgments in civil cases, and from

  3  7 of the persons defendant executing the same.  Attested copies
  3  8 of such the undertakings may be filed in the office of the
  3  9 clerk of the district court of the county in which the real
  3 10 estate is situated, in the same manner and with like effect as
  3 11 attested copies of civil judgments, and shall be immediately
  3 12 docketed and indexed in the same manner.
  3 13    Sec. 9.  Section 903A.5, unnumbered paragraph 1, Code 1995,
  3 14 is amended to read as follows:
  3 15    An inmate shall not be discharged from the custody of the

  3 18 sentenced, less good conduct time earned and not forfeited,
  3 19 unless the inmate is pardoned or otherwise legally released.
  3 20 Good conduct time earned and not forfeited shall apply to
  3 21 reduce a mandatory minimum sentence being served pursuant to
  3 22 section 124.406, 124.413, 902.7, 902.8, or 902.11.  An inmate
  3 23 shall be deemed to be serving the sentence from the day on
  3 24 which the inmate is received into the institution.  However,
  3 25 if an inmate was confined to a county jail or other
  3 26 correctional or mental facility at any time prior to
  3 27 sentencing, or after sentencing but prior to the case having
  3 28 been decided on appeal, because of failure to furnish bail or
  3 29 because of being charged with a nonbailable offense, the
  3 30 inmate shall be given credit for the days already served upon
  3 31 the term of the sentence.  The clerk of the district court
  3 32 sheriff of the county from in which the inmate was sentenced,
  3 33 confined shall certify to the warden clerk of the district
  3 34 court from which the inmate was sentenced the number of days
  3 35 so served.  The clerk of the district court shall forward a
  4  1 copy of the certification of the days served to the warden.  
  4  2                           EXPLANATION
  4  3    Sections 1 and 4 through 6 of this bill eliminate the
  4  4 requirements of the clerk of the district court and certain
  4  5 local officials to enter certain actions relating to
  4  6 redemption of property in the sale book.  Section 602.8104
  4  7 does not require the court to maintain a sheriff's sale book.
  4  8    Section 3 of this bill requires a $25 fee payable to the
  4  9 clerk of the district court for filing a motion to show cause
  4 10 in a civil case.
  4 11    Section 7 of the bill requires the clerk of the district
  4 12 court to provide an executor an authenticated copy of the will
  4 13 only upon request.  The clerk is still required to provide the
  4 14 executor with a copy of the will.
  4 15    Section 8 of the bill provides that undertakings of bail
  4 16 shall only be liens upon the real estate of the defendant and
  4 17 not also on the real estate of surety companies executing bail
  4 18 bonds.
  4 19    Sections 2 and 9 of the bill require that the sheriff
  4 20 certify the amount of time an inmate has served in a county
  4 21 jail or other correctional facility prior to sentencing or
  4 22 after sentencing but prior to a decision on appeal.  The clerk
  4 23 of the district court of the county from which the inmate was
  4 24 sentenced shall forward this certification to the warden.
  4 25 Current law requires the clerk to certify the days served to
  4 26 the warden.
