Rule 14.05. Appellate Judgment

(1) As used in this rule,

(a) "Appellate judgment" means a decision of the Court of Appeals or Supreme Court together with a final order and the seal of the court.

(b) "Decision" means a designation of prevailing party and allowance of costs together with,

(i) In an appeal from circuit court or the Tax Court, or on judicial review of an agency proceeding, an order disposing of the appeal or judicial review or affirming without opinion; or with respect to a nonprecedential memorandum opinion or an opinion indicating the author, the title page of the opinion containing the court's disposition of the appeal or judicial review.

(ii) In a case of original jurisdiction in the appellate court, in addition to the documents specified in subparagraph (i) of this paragraph, an order denying, dismissing, or allowing without opinion the petition or other document invoking the court's jurisdiction. An order allowing a petition for an alternative writ of mandamus or writ of habeas corpus is not a decision within the meaning of this rule.

(c) "Designation of prevailing party and allowance of costs" means that part of a decision indicating, when relevant, which party prevailed before the appellate court, whether costs are allowed, and, if so, which party or parties are responsible for costs.

(d) "Final order" means that part of the appellate judgment ordering payment of costs or attorney fees in a sum certain by specified parties or directing entry of judgment in favor of the Judicial Department for unpaid appellate court filing fees, or both.

(2) The decision of the Supreme Court or Court of Appeals is effective:

(a) With respect to appeals from circuit court or the Tax Court, on the date that the Administrator sends a copy of the appellate judgment to the court below.

(b) With respect to judicial review of administrative agency proceedings, on the date that the Administrator sends a copy of the appellate judgment to the administrative agency.

(c) With respect to original jurisdiction proceedings, within the time or on the date specified in the court's decision or, if no time period or date is specified, on the date of entry of the appellate judgment. When the effective date is specified in the court's decision, the decision is effective on that date notwithstanding the date the appellate judgment issues.

(3) The Administrator shall prepare the appellate judgment, enter the appellate judgment in the register, send a copy of the appellate judgment with the court's seal affixed thereto to the court or administrative agency from which the appeal or judicial review was taken, and send a copy of the appellate judgment to each of the parties.

(a) With respect to a decision of the Court of Appeals, the Administrator will not issue the appellate judgment for a period of 35 days after the decision to allow time for a petition for review pursuant to ORS 2.520 and ORAP 9.05. If a petition for review is filed, the appellate judgment will not issue until the petition is resolved.

(b) With respect to an order of the Supreme Court denying review or a decision of the Supreme Court, the Administrator will not issue the appellate judgment for a period of 28 days after the order or decision to allow time for a petition for reconsideration under ORAP 9.25 or a petition for attorney fees or submission of a statement of costs and disbursements under ORAP 13.05 and ORAP 13.10.

(c) If one or more statements of costs and disbursements, petitions for attorney fees, or motions or petitions for reconsideration are filed, the Administrator will not issue the appellate judgment until all statements of costs and disbursements, petitions for attorney fees, or petitions for reconsideration are determined by order of the court.

(d) Notwithstanding paragraphs (a), (b), and (c) of this subsection, a party may request immediate issuance of the appellate judgment based on a showing that no party intends to file a petition for review, petition for attorney fees, or any other thing requiring a judicial ruling.

(4)

(a) The money award part of an appellate judgment for costs, attorney fees, or both, in favor of a party other than the Judicial Department that has been entered in the judgment docket of a circuit court may be satisfied in the circuit court in the manner prescribed in ORS 18.225 to 18.238, or other applicable law.

(b) The money award part of an appellate judgment for an unpaid filing fee, mediation fee, or other costs in favor of the Judicial Department shall be satisfied as follows. Upon presentation to the Administrator of sufficient evidence that the amount of the money judgment has been paid:

(i) The Administrator shall note the fact of payment in the appellate court case register; and

(ii) If requested by the party and upon payment of the certification fee, the Administrator shall issue a certificate showing the fact of satisfaction of the money award. As requested by the party, the Administrator shall issue a certificate to the party, to the court or administrative agency to which a copy of the appellate judgment was sent, or to both.
