W.D. Mo. L.R. 54.1
Bill of Costs
(a) District Court Costs.
1. A party seeking an award of costs must file a verified bill of costs, on the form
provided by the Clerk, no later than 21 days after entry of final judgment under
Fed. R. Civ. P. 58. Within 14 days after the bill of costs is filed, each party
objecting to the bill of costs must file suggestions stating specific objections.
Within 14 days after objections are filed, the party seeking costs may file reply
suggestions.
2. If timely objections are filed, after the Court considers the objections and any
reply, it will direct the Clerk to tax costs as appropriate. If no timely objection
is filed, the Clerk must tax costs as claimed in the bill.
3. Costs are paid directly to the attorneys of record and execution may be had
therefor. The filing of a bill of costs in no way affects the finality and
appealability of the final judgment previously entered.
(b) Costs on Appeal Taxable in the District Court. If a party files a bill of costs or
amended bill of costs within 21 days after the Court of Appeals issues the mandate,
the Clerk must tax costs allowable pursuant to Fed. R. App. P. 39(e) in accordance
with Rule 54.1(a).
