N.C. R. Prac. Super. & Dist. Ct. 9.1
When a case on a published calendar is settled, all attorneys of record or self-represented persons must notify the Civil Court Coordinator within twenty-four (24) hours of the settlement and advise who will prepare and present the Judgment (or other closing documents), and when. Attorneys and self-represented persons are to take all steps necessary to close settled cases and have an affirmative duty to file all necessary documents and do so within the term of court for which the case is calendared for trial, or hearing, or by a hearing date. If a case is not reported to the Civil Court Coordinator as settled before 5:00 pm on the DAY before the case is scheduled for hearing, then the parties must appear unless expressly excused by the presiding judge.
