15-6-58(b). Proposed order or judgment--Time to confer--Notation--Objection procedure--Waiver--Modification.

A party directed by the court to prepare an order or judgment without findings of fact and conclusions of law shall prepare a proposed order or judgment and provide it to all parties within five days of being directed.

Thereafter, the parties shall have five days in which to confer in an effort to agree upon the form of the proposed order or judgment. If all parties agree as to the form of the proposed order or judgment, or if no objection to the form of the order or judgment is timely received from any opposing party, then the party preparing the proposed order or judgment shall insert “NO OBJECTION AS TO FORM BY COUNSEL” in the lower left-hand corner of the final page of the proposed order or judgment. If any party timely objects to the form of the order or judgment and the parties are unable to reach an agreement as to form during such five-day period, then each party shall submit a proposed order or judgment to the court within two days after the expiration of the five-day confer period.

Any objections as to form are waived by a party’s failure to timely submit a proposed order or judgment to the court as provided in this rule, unless the party’s failure is excused by the court for good cause shown.

This procedure may be modified by the court.
