Rule 58(b). Remittitur; procedure; effect on right of appeal

    1. A party in whose favor a verdict or judgment has been rendered may, in open court, or in writing filed with the clerk, remit any part of the verdict or judgment. A remittitur announced in open court shall be entered in the minutes, and execution shall thereafter issue for the balance only of the judgment after deducting the amount remitted.

    2. The remittitur shall not affect the right of the opposite party to appeal from the judgment, and for that purpose the amount of the original judgment shall be considered the amount in controversy.
