(a) In all cases in which a judgment is rendered pursuant to the code of civil procedure for limited actions, the party in whose favor judgment is rendered may pay the fee prescribed by K.S.A. 28-170 and amendments thereto. Upon payment of the fee the clerk of the district court in the county in which the judgment was rendered shall renumber the case as a case filed under this chapter and enter payment of the fee and the renumbering of the case on the appearance docket of the case.
