(1) A loose leaf minute book, similar to that kept by the circuit court, each case to be numbered consecutively in order of its filing.
(2) Index and cross-index book, containing the names of all parties to each action with the number of the case opposite the name.
(3) A fee book as is provided for city courts.
(4) An order book in which all orders of a cause are written consecutively when final judgment or order is entered.
(b) The case should bear the same number as originally given to the case when filed and must be arranged in the order book consecutively according to the original number given to the case when filed. All orders, proceedings, records of issuing execution, returns of execution, and satisfactions of execution shall be grouped together, if practical, on one (1) page or on consecutive pages when there is not sufficient room to group it on one (1) page. All costs in a cause shall be taxed on the margin of the page containing the final order or judgment. All orders not connected with a specific case, such as general appointments made by the judge, shall be entered in the minute book under a separate number and recorded in the record book under that number.
