Except as otherwise provided elsewhere in these rules, on their effective date:


    1) Any acts done before the effective date in any proceedings then pending or
any action taken in any proceeding pending under rules of procedure in effect
prior to the effective date of these rules are not impaired by these rules.

    2) These rules also apply to any proceedings in court then pending or
thereafter commenced regardless of when the proceedings were commenced, except
to the extent that in the opinion of the court, the former procedures should
continue to be made applicable in a particular case in the interest of justice
