§55-10-3. Entry of award as judgment or decree; compensation of arbitrators.
Upon the return of any such award, made under such an agreement (whether any previous record of the submission or rule thereupon has been made or not), it shall be entered up as the judgment or decree of the court, unless good cause be shown against it at the first term after the parties have been summoned to show cause against it. And the court shall make to such arbitrators such reasonable allowance for their services as it may deem proper, to be taxed in the costs of the suit or proceeding, when no provision is made for the pay of the arbitrators in the arbitration agreement, or to be otherwise paid as the court may direct.
