Mass. R. Land. Ct. 9
Motions for reconsideration, and all briefs and affidavits or other supporting materials filed by the moving party in support thereof, shall be filed with the court and served on all parties. The words "MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION" shall appear clearly in the title to the motion. Upon filing, the recorder shall transmit the motion and supporting papers to the judge who decided the original motion or matter. No response to the motion for reconsideration shall be required, and no hearing shall be marked or scheduled, unless the judge so requests, and the judge may deny the motion without the need of such a response or hearing. No motion to reconsider shall be granted without giving the opposing party an opportunity to respond.
