libro de resultas

Spanish to English Social Sciences History
Una vez cumplidos los plazos de reintegración de granos o dinero, el escribano, de acuerdo con la Junta, formará una nómina de deudores, de acuerdo con lo asentado en el libro. El escribano lo entregaba al Depositario para que verificase las entradas o pagos previstos (Libro de resultas). Pasadas las diligencias correspondientes, los impagos pasaban a las justicias de los pueblos.

Any ideas?

Sorry for giving so many answers, but you can use any of them.

"Resultas," in plural, are bonds or contracts which having had credit in a particular budget, were not paid in time, and are moved as a special item into another budget.

In this context, it has nothing to do with "a resultas de," which in English is "as a result of."

I've sort of derived this form the fact that "estar a resultas de" means "to keep track of".
