[W]e think it important for both bench and bar to note that Rule 12 contemplates affirmative action by the trial court on pretrial motions: the trial court should deal with such motions in as unequivocal language as possible in order that the movant not be left guessing as to when his answer is due. Only clear rulings by the trial court can prevent abuse of the rales by either the moving or the non-moving party in regard to the time requirements of the rales.
