Rule 36 Entry of Judgment

The notation of a judgment in the docket constitutes entry of the judgment. The clerk shall prepare, sign and enter the judgement following receipt of the opinion of the appellate division unless the opinion directs settlement of the form of the judgment, in which event the clerk shall prepare, sign and enter the judgment following final settlement. If a judgment is rendered without an opinion, the clerk shall prepare, sign and enter the judgment following instruction form the appellate division. The clerk shall, on the date judgment is entered, mail to all parties or place in the attorney’s Court box a copy of the opinion, if any, or of the judgment if no opinion was written, and notice of the date of entry of the judgment.
