(a) When the Court Affirms. Unless the law provides otherwise,
if a money judgment in a civil case is affirmed, whatever interest
is allowed by law is payable from the date when the district
court’s judgment was entered.
(b) When the Court Reverses. If the court modifies or reverses a
judgment with a direction that a money judgment be entered in
the district court, the mandate must contain instructions about
the allowance of interest.
