96 Stat. 25, 46, wherein money judgments are entered shall file the appropriate motion or motions within 30 days after entry of the money judgment. Defendant shall file its response within 28 days and a reply may be filed within 14 days. Absent the filing of such a timely motion, a docket entry will be made closing the case.
