     § 3545.  Transcripts of balances due by personal representative.
        (a)  Filing in common pleas.--The prothonotary of any court
     of common pleas shall, on demand of any party in interest, file
     and docket a certified transcript or extract from the record
     showing that an orphans' court division has adjudged an amount
     to be due by a personal representative, and such transcript or
     extract shall constitute a judgment against the personal
     representative from the time of its filing with the same effect
     as if it had been obtained in an action in the trial or civil
     division of the court of common pleas. If the amount adjudged to
     be due by the personal representative shall be increased or
     decreased on appeal, the prothonotary shall, if the decree of
     the appellate court is certified to him, change his records
     accordingly, and if the appellate court has increased the
     amount, the excess shall constitute a judgment against the
     personal representative from the time when the records are so
     changed.
        (b)  Satisfaction and discharge.--If the orphans' court
     division shall order the personal representative to be relieved
     from any such judgment, the prothonotary shall, on demand of any
     party in interest, enter on his records a certified copy of such
     order, which shall operate as a satisfaction of the judgment.
