Docket entry

200187 Kosko v. Ramser 05/20/2021 In a case where a nonsuit order was entered as requested by the plaintiff and the defendants then asked the circuit court to award them costs under Code § 8.01-380, the court stated from the bench 20 days after the nonsuit order that it would award costs to the defendants, but -- over the objection of the plaintiff -- the written order awarding these costs was entered more than 21 days after entry of the nonsuit order. The circuit court was without jurisdiction under Rule 1:1 to enter the written order awarding costs, and it must be vacated.
