OMNIBUS RULING ON POST-TRIAL ISSUES. For the reasons set forth in the attached ruling, the Court: -- DENIES Sean Dunne's motion for post-verdict relief (Doc. # 570 ) in its entirety. -- GRANTS in part and DENIES in part the Trus tee's motion for prejudgment interest (Doc. # 627 ). Prejudgment interest shall be awarded to the Trustee against Killilea in the total amount of 1,407,229.60 Euros. In light of the mathematical complexity of the prejudgment interest award calcu lations in this case, if any party believes that this ruling is based upon a clear computational error, they are encouraged to file a timely motion for reconsideration or motion to re-open the judgment rather than litigating a claimed error of math i n the first instance on appeal. -- DENIES the Trustee the relief he seeks in his brief on equitable claims (Doc. # 524 ). -- OVERRULES as moot the Killilea defendants' objection to Judge Garfinkel's ruling on the Trustee� 39;s motion for post-verdict, prejudgment remedies (Doc. # 647 ). -- GRANTS Killilea and Wahl's motion to discharge the lis pendens (Doc. # 629 ) on 22 Stillman Lane subject to their proposed stipulation and representations that the proceeds of any sale of the property will be provided to the Trustee to secure and/or satisfy the judgment in this case. I have considered all other arguments raised by the parties in relation to these issues even if the arguments are no t expressly discussed in this ruling. The Clerk of Court shall enter judgment on July 19, 2021 in accordance with the jury's verdict (Doc. # 509 ) as well as this ruling. Final judgment shall enter against Killilea in the total amount of 19,172,935.60 Euros and $278,297.18. Upon separate entry of judgment, the Clerk of Court shall close this case. If any party has a good-faith basis to file a motion for reconsideration or a motion to re-open the judgment consistent with the limitations discussed in this ruling, they may file such a motion by no later than 14 days from the entry of judgment. It is so ordered. Signed by Judge Jeffrey A. Meyer on 7/15/2021. (DeBot, B.)
