N.D. Iowa LR 83B
Settlement Deadline
a. General Costs. The court may impose a settlement deadline on the parties. If a settlement is
reached after the deadline without prior approval of the court, the court may, after giving the
parties and their counsel an opportunity to be heard, impose any appropriate sanction against
one or more of the parties or their counsel, or both, for violation of the settlement deadline.
Sanctions may include the assessment of costs incurred by the court as a result of the failure to
settle the case before the deadline.
b. Jury Costs. Where a civil case scheduled for jury trial is settled or otherwise disposed of in
advance of the actual trial, and the Clerk of Court is not notified at least 7 days before the day
scheduled for jury selection that the trial will not be held, then, except for good cause shown,
juror costs may be assessed equally against the parties and their counsel, or otherwise assessed
as directed by the court.
