Unless a federal statute, these rules, or a court order provides otherwise, costs — other than attorney's fees — should be allo wed to the prevailing party. But costs against the United States, its officers, and its agencies may be imposed only to the extent allowed by law. The clerk may tax costs on 14 day's notice. On motion served within the next 7 days, the court may review the clerk's action. RULE 6 (d) Additional Time After Certain Kinds of Service. When a party may or must act within a specified time after service and service is made under Rule5( b)(2)(C), (D), (E), or (F), 3 days are added after the period would othe rwise expire under Rule 6(a). RULE 58(e) Cost or Fee Awards: Ordinarily, the entry of judgment may not be delayed, nor the tim e for appeal extended, in order to tax costs or award fees. But if a timely motion for attorney's fees is made under Rule 54(d)(2), the court may act before a notice of appeal has been filed and become effective to order that the motion have the same effect under Fe deral Rule of Appellate Procedure 4(a)(4) as a timely motion un der Rule 59.
