Filing 123 ORDER: The Court received letters (dated October 1, 2020, and October 2, 2020) from counsel related to the Court's Order issued on September 25, 2020. Docket# 119. Because the Order relates to the parties' settlement agreement, which is confidential, the letters are to be filed under seal. The Clerk of the Court is respectfully directed to restrict access to these letters to the parties of record and their attorneys. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Andrew E. Krause on 10/16/2020) (nb) |
Filing 122 AMENDED ORDER: For these reasons Defendant TEA is ordered to pay to Plaintiff the total amount of $6,205.84. This constitutes the Decision and Order of the Court. Counsel is hereby notified that although the undersigned maintained juris diction of this matter for purposes of enforcing settlement, the upcoming retirement of the undersigned would prevent the undersigned from doing so in future. Cases assigned to the undersigned will be reassigned to a different Magistrate Judge, and counsel will be notified of that reassignment. SO ORDERED. (for LMS as to typographical correction.) (Signed by Magistrate Judge Paul E. Davison on 10/6/2020) (ks) |
Filing 119 ORDER: For the reasons set forth herein, the undersigned awards Plaintiff interest in the amount of $94.84 and attorneys' fees in the amount of $4,500.00. The Court's review of the claimed attorneys' fees leads to the concl usion that a substantial part of the time expended was necessary because new counsel, who had not been involved in the settlement negotiations or settlement agreement, were brought in to handle this matter at this stage. As a result, time was expende d throughout which would not have been necessaiy, at least not to that degree, if counsel at this time had also been involved in the settlement process. I therefore conclude that the claimed amount of Mr. Licare's work, at 19.4 hours, is excessi ve, and reduce the hours by 30% to 13.58 hours, for a payment due of $6,111. No information has been provided to justify the Federal Express cost, so I do not award it. Defendants have not opposed the payment of interest on the settlement a mount, and therefore the interest payment of $94.84 is ordered to be paid by Defendant TEA. For these reasons Defendant TEA is ordered to pay to Plaintiff the total amount of $6,205.84. This constitutes the Decision and Order of the Court. Counsel is hereby notified that although the undersigned maintained jurisdiction of this matter for purposes of enforcing settlement, the upcoming retirement of the undersigned would prevent the undersigned from doing so in future. Cases assigned to the undersigned will be reassigned to a different Magistrate Judge, and counsel will be notified of that reassignment. (as further set forth herein). SO ORDERED. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Lisa Margaret Smith on 9/25/2020) (kv) Transmission to Finance Unit (Cashiers) for processing. |
Filing 118 ORDER: Plaintiff's counsel is hereby directed to submit to the Court unredacted invoices for the attorney's fees claimed in its letter of August 3, 2020, for in camera review, by emailing the invoices to ChambersNYSDSmith@nysd.uscourts.gov. Counsel shall also provide an explanation, copy to Defendants' counsel, for including fees for any attorney other than Joseph Licare in the request. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Lisa Margaret Smith on 8/21/2020) (kv) |
