(a) Orders will be noted in the civil docket immediately after the judge has signed them. The
Clerk may require any party obtaining a judgment or order which does not require approval as to
form by the judge to supply him with a draft thereof.
(b) No judgment or order, except orders grantable by the Clerk pursuant to authorization by
the Court and judgments which the Clerk is authorized by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure
to enter without direction of the Court will be noted in the civil docket until the Clerk has
received from the Court a specific direction to enter it. Unless the Court’s direction is given to
the Clerk in open court and noted in the minutes, it should be evidenced by the signature initials
of the judge on the form of judgment or order.
(c) Every order and judgment shall be filed in the Clerk’s office, and if the Clerk so
requests, a copy shall also be delivered to the Clerk for insertion in the civil order book.
