¶11 The law requires a prevailing party to file the bill of costs within five
days after the jury renders its verdict. Section 25-10-501, MCA, states:
     Bill of costs. The party in whose favor judgment is rendered
     and who claims his costs must deliver to the clerk and serve
     upon the adverse party, within 5 days after the verdict or notice
     of the decision of the court or referee or, if the entry of the
     judgment on the verdict or decision be stayed, then before such
     entry is made, a memorandum of the items of his costs and
     necessary disbursements in the action or proceeding, which
     memorandum must be verified by the oath of the party, his
     attorney or agent, or the clerk of his attorney, stating that to the
     best of his knowledge and belief the items are correct and that
     the disbursements have been necessarily incurred in the action
     or proceeding.
