NOTICE Section 1924, Title 28, U.S. Code (effective September 1, 1948) provides: "Sec. 1924. Verification of bill of costs." "Before any bill of costs is taxed, the party claiming any item of cost or disbursement shall attach thereto an affidavit, made by himself or by his duly authorized attorney or agent having knowledge of the facts, that such item is correct and has been necessarily incurred in the case and that the services for which fees have been charged were actually and necessarily performed." See also Section 1920 of Title 28 which reads in part as follows: "A bill of costs shall be filed in the case and, upon allowance, included in the judgment or decree." The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure contain the following provisions: Rule 54 (d) "Except when express provisions thereof is made either in a statute of the United States or in these rules, costs shall be allowed as of course to the prevailing party unless the court otherwise directs, but costs against the United States, its officers, and agencies shall be imposed only to the extent permitted by law. Costs may be taxed by the clerk on one day's notice. On motion served within 5 days thereafter, the action of the clerk may be reviewed by the court." D.C.COLO.LCivR 54.1 Taxation of Costs "Each judgment or the final order shall indicate which party or parties are entitled to costs. A bill of costs must be filed on the form provided by the court within ten days after entry of the judgment or final order. Costs will be taxed by the clerk or a designated deputy. Prior to appearance before the clerk, counsel for the party seeking costs shall file a written statement that a reasonable effort has been made, in conference with opposing counsel, to resolve disputes regarding costs. It costs are resolved, a stipulation setting forth the amount of costs shall be filed with the court."
