LR 58.2 SATISFACTION OF JUDGMENT
Whenever the amount directed to be paid by any judgment or decree, together with interest and the clerk's statutory charges, shall have been paid into the Court, the clerk shall enter satisfaction of said judgment and shall note same on the margin of the judgment. Satisfaction may be evidenced by either:
(1) the filing of a satisfaction of judgment by the prevailing party, or
(2) the filing of a motion by the defendant requesting satisfaction of the judgment of record. A copy of the motion must be served upon the prevailing party who shall have fourteen (14) days within which to object. Otherwise, the clerk shall be authorized to mark the judgment paid and satisfied in full.
No pleadings or motions relating to the satisfaction of judgments shall be accepted for filing prior to the expiration of the time allowed for filing a bill of costs.
Only the United States Attorney or authorized designee is authorized to sign an acknowledgment of satisfaction on behalf of the United States. The attorney, legal representative, or assignee of a judgment creditor must present evidence of authority to act when presenting an acknowledgment of satisfaction on behalf of the judgment creditor.
