(b) Ruling on Other Civil Matter Taken Under Advisement. A judge of the district court who takes under advisement a civil matter other than a motion must issue a ruling on the matter no later than 90 days after the matter's submission.

(c) Reporting Requirement. If a judge of the district court fails to issue a ruling within the time required under subsection (a) or (b), the judge must--no later than 7 days after the expiration of the time period--file with the judicial administrator a written report stating the title of the case and case number, the nature of the matter taken under advisement, and the reason the judge has not entered a judgment, ruling, or decision.
