   Whenever a judgment is so vacated and set aside, the clerk of the court in which it was rendered shall mark the fi. fa. issued on the judgment "canceled"; and the clerk of the superior court shall enter the same upon the general execution docket and make thereon an appropriate reference to the order vacating the judgment. Whenever a judgment is vacated and set aside as provided in Code Section 44-14-163, any deed reconveying the property to the defendant in fi. fa. for the purpose of levy and sale shall be automatically canceled and rendered null and void by virtue of this Code section; and the clerk of the superior court shall enter on the record of such deed or reconveyance, when recorded, the word "canceled" and shall make an appropriate reference to the order vacating the judgment.
