Section 35-4-33 Judgment for specific performance. A judgment for specific performance shall
operate as a deed to convey land or other property without any conveyance being executed by
the vendor. Such judgment, certified by the clerk or register, shall be recorded in the registry
of deeds in the county where the land lies, and shall stand in the place of a deed. In any
action in which the court orders the specific performance of a contract for the sale of real
estate, when it appears from the evidence that the party in whose favor the judgment is made
is entitled to the possession of the real estate as against the other party and that such
other party is in person or by tenants in possession of such real estate, the court may, in
such judgment of specific performance, order the issuance of a writ of possession as in ejectment
cases. (Code 1907, §3366; Code 1923, §6850; Code 1940, T. 47, §35.)...
