NAR 19

(a) Upon notification to the prevailing party by the commissioner that no party has filed a written request for trial de novo within 30 days after service of the award on the parties, the prevailing party shall submit to the commissioner, or assigned judge when no commissioner is appointed, a form of final judgment in accordance with the arbitration award and a separate decision on any timely application for attorney fees, costs, and/or interest. The commissioner shall submit the judgment to the assigned district judge for signature; the judgment must then be filed with the clerk of the court.

(b) A judgment entered pursuant to this rule shall have the same force and effect as a final judgment of the court in a civil action but may not be appealed. Except that an appeal may be taken from the judgment if the district court entered a written interlocutory order disposing of a portion of the action. Review on appeal, however, is limited to the interlocutory order, and no issues determined by the arbitration will be considered.

(c) Although clerical mistakes in judgments and errors therein arising from oversight or omission may be corrected by the court at any time on its own initiative or on the motion of any party, no other amendment of or relief from a judgment entered pursuant to this rule shall be allowed.
