Unless the court shall deem it unnecessary in a particular case, a post-trial conference shall be held, at a time fixed by the court, in every case in which a post-trial motion has been filed. The purpose of such conference will be to limit the issue which must be considered by the court in ruling upon the post-trial motion and to determine how much of the stenographic record of the trial should be transcribed.
