Rule 2.602 - Orders and Judgments(A) Presentation for Signature. Judgments and orders to which all parties have consented in writing as to form or form and substance shall be presented for the signature or attention of the judge through the court clerk, the court officer, or the judge's secretary. Such documents shall be presented before court convenes, during recess, at the close of court in the forenoon or afternoon, or left at the judge's chambers for presentation to the judge. If the document is presented for signature while the judge is on the bench and it would be a hardship upon the attorney to return later to pick up the signed document, it may be given to the court clerk who will present it to the judge as soon as possible.(B) Distracting Conduct. Papers should not be presented to the clerk in the court during trial arguments to the court or jury.Mich. L. Ct. R. Cir. Ct. 2.602
