LR 58.1 Procedure for Entry of Judgments and Orders

An order or judgment shall be entered by one of the following methods:

(a) The Court may sign the judgment or order at or after the time it grants the relief provided by the judgment or order.

(b) The Court shall sign the judgment or order when its form is approved by all the parties.

(c) Within seven days after the granting of the judgment or order, or later if the Court allows, a party may serve a copy of the proposed judgment or order on the other parties, with a notice to them that it will be submitted to the Court for signing if no written objections are filed within seven days after service of the notice. The party must file with the Court the original of the proposed judgment or order and proof of its service on the other parties.

(1) If no written objections are filed within seven days, the Court shall then sign the judgment or order if, in the Court's determination, it comports with the Court's decision. If the proposed judgment or order does not comport with the decision, the Court shall notify the parties to appear before the Court on a specified date for settlement of the matter; or, in the Court's discretion, the Court may enter its own order consistent with the Court's decision.

(2) The party filing the objections must serve them on all parties.

(3) If objections are filed, within seven days after receiving notice of the objections, the party who proposed the judgment or order must notice it for settlement before the court.

(d) A party may prepare a proposed judgment or order and notice it for settlement before the Court.
