Taxation of Costs and Attorney's Fees

(a) Deadline for Requests for Costs and Attorney’s Fees. A party cannot recover attorney’s fees and costs unless the party files and serves a bill of costs and a motion for fees within 14 days after final judgment is entered. The court may extend this deadline for good cause if a motion requesting an extension is filed before the original deadline. (b) Form for Bill of Costs.

The court prefers that parties use AO form 133 (available from the clerk) for the bill of costs. 59
