  • If the court in a proceeding under Section 6-9-255 finds that the foreign-country judgment is entitled to recognition under this article, then, to the extent that the foreign-country judgment grants or denies recovery of a sum of money, the foreign-country judgment is:

    (1) conclusive between the parties to the same extent as the judgment of a sister state entitled to full faith and credit in this state would be conclusive; and

    (2) enforceable in the same manner and to the same extent as a judgment rendered in this state.
