Additionally, Defendants shall reimburse Doug's Word for its "reasonable expenses, includin g attorney's fees," caused by their failures to comply with the Court's Orders and their discovery obligations. Counsel shall confer in an effort to reach agreement on what constitutes "reasonable expenses" caused by Defend ants' failures. Barring agreement, Doug's Word shall submit a fee application, supported by contemporaneous billing records, no later than thirty days from this Opinion and Order; Defendants shall file any opposition within two weeks of any application. Absent leave of Court, Doug's Word may not file a reply. The suspension of litigation pending resolution of this motion (see Docket No. 41) is hereby lifted. Given that Defendants Princess International Friedman have new coun sel, the Court hereby ORDERS the parties to appear for a conference on October 4, 2017, at 4:15 p.m., in Courtroom 1105 of the Thurgood Marshall Courthouse, 40 Centre Street, New York, New York.
