Costs taxed by the Supreme Court are payable upon the expiration of twenty days from the date of the notice of taxation if no petition for rehearing has been filed. The payment for the costs shall be made payable to the prevailing party and transmitted to the clerk of the trial court. Upon receipt of the payment, the clerk shall mark the Supreme Court cost judgment satisfied and transmit the payment for the assessed costs to counsel for the prevailing party, or if the prevailing party has no counsel, directly to the prevailing party.

If a petition for rehearing is granted, costs taxed are not payable until twenty days have expired from the date of the decision entered on the rehearing.
