IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

No. C-01-1351 T.E.H.

STIPULATION AND ORDER FOR

COLLECTION OF ADDITIONAL

UNDISPUTED ATTORNEYS' FEES

AND COSTS FOR THIRD QUARTER

OF 2007

On December 17, 2002, this Court established a procedure by which plaintiffs are

to collect attorneys' fees and costs incurred in connection with the Stipulation for

Injunctive Relief. This procedure requires plaintiffs' counsel to submit to defendants a

quarterly statement of fees incurred in monitoring work, and permits defendants thirty (30)

days from the receipt of plaintiffs' statement to notify plaintiffs of any disputed items. 

After the parties meet and confer on any of defendant's objections, counsel shall then

prepare a stipulated order for payment of the fees not subject to defendants’ objections.

Stipulation and Order Re: Collection of Additional Undisputed Third Quarter Fees

Plata v. Schwarzenegger, No. C-01-1351 T.E.H. 2

The Order also states that defendants shall have thirty (30) days from the entry of the order

to pay the undisputed fees and that interest on any undisputed fees will run from the thirtyfirst day after the Order is filed, accruing at the rate provided by 28 U.S.C. § 1961. 

Pursuant to this procedure, plaintiffs' counsel served their third quarter billing

statement demanding $255,923 for the period from July 1, 2007 through September 30,

2007 on April 7, 2008. Following negotiations, the parties stipulate to a payment of

$197,770, and the Court so ordered on April 30, 2008. Having entered into further

negotiations, the parties now stipulate to the payment of an additional $7931 for fees and

costs incurred during the third quarter of 2007. Plaintiffs reserve the right to pursue the

remainder of the fees, as provided under this Court’s December 17, 2002 Order.

 WHEREFORE, defendants agree to pay plaintiffs’ counsel $7931 within 30 days of

the signing of this Order. On the 31 day following the entry of this Order, interest on any st

unpaid amount will begin to accrue at the rate provided by 28 U.S.C. § 1961 (i.e., the

weekly average 1 year constant maturity Treasury yield for the calendar week preceding

the date of the Order.)

AGREED TO BY THE PARTIES:
