RULE 14.2
WHO IS ENTITLED TO COSTS
A commissioner or clerk of the appellate court will
award costs to the party that substantially prevails on
review, unless the appellate court directs otherwise in its
decision terminating review. If there is no substantially
prevailing party on review, the commissioner or clerk will
not award costs to any party. An award of costs will specify
the party who must pay the award. In a criminal case
involving an indigent juvenile or adult offender, an award
of costs will apportion the money owed between the county
and the State. A party who is a nominal party only will not
be awarded costs and will not be required to pay costs. A
"nominal party" is one who is named but has no real interest
in the controversy.
