conformance with Section 696.3 of this title has been filed with the

a copy of the judgment, decree, or appealable order to be mailed to
the moving party, and the court records do not reflect the mailing of
a copy of the judgment, decree, or appealable order to the moving

the filing of the judgment, decree, or appealable order, the motion to
correct, open, modify, or vacate the judgment, decree, or appealable
order may be filed no later than thirty (30) days after the earliest
date on which the court records show that a copy of the judgment,
decree, or appealable order was mailed to the moving party. The moving
party shall give notice to all affected parties. A motion to correct,
open, modify, or vacate a judgment or decree filed after the
announcement of the decision on all issues in the case but before the
filing of the judgment or decree shall be deemed filed immediately
after the filing of the judgment or decree.
C. After thirty (30) days after a judgment, decree, or appealable
order has been filed, proceedings to vacate or modify the judgment,
decree, or appealable order shall be by petition in conformance with
