8th Cir. R. 47C
ATTORNEY FEES
(a) Motion for Fees. A motion for attorney fees, with proof of
service, must be filed with the clerk within 14 days after the entry of
judgment. The party against whom an award of fees is sought must
file objections to an allowance of fees within 7 days after service. The
-30-
court may grant on its own motion an allowance of reasonable attorney
fees to a prevailing party.
(b) Determination of Fees. On the court's own motion or at the
request of the prevailing party, a motion for attorney fees may be
remanded to the district court or administrative agency for appropriate
hearing and determination.
(c) Mandate. The clerk will prepare and certify an award of attorney
fees granted by the court for insertion in the mandate. Issuance of a
mandate will not be delayed for an award of attorney fees. If a mandate
issues before final determination of a motion for attorney fees, the clerk
of the district court, on the request of the clerk of this court, will add
the award and its amendments to the mandate.
