CLASS ACTION

 ORDER DENYING OBJECTOR KAMELA 

WILKINSON’S MOTION FOR AN ORDER 

DIRECTING THE CLERK TO ACCEPT 

$2,000.00 TO BE APPLIED TO THE 

COURT’S AUGUST9, 2005 BOND ORDER

On August 9, 2005, this Court issued an Order [No. 539] determining that 

Objector Kamela Wilkinson was jointly and severally liable for a bond of $42,000 under Fed. 

R. App. 7. The order required that the bond be posted within 14 days of its date.

Objector Wilkinson sought no stay of this order. Instead, her counsel on 

August 19 attempted to tender to the clerk the sum of $2,000, the portion of the bond relating 

to copying and service costs of appellate briefs. The clerk refused to accept anything less than 

the full bond amount ordered by the Court.

On August 22, Objector Wilkinson filed a motion [No. 522] for an order 

directing the Clerk to accept $2,000 to be applied to the Court’s August 9 bond order. She did 

not post the required bond amount on the date mandated by that order.

Having reviewed the submissions of Objector Wilkinson and of class counsel 

[No. 569], the Court determines that no further argument on this motion is necessary. The 

Court’s August 9 order concerning the amount and timing of payment was clear, and Objector 

Wilkinson and her counsel have willfully failed to comply with it. They have demonstrated 

no good cause for this failure. To the extent Objector Wilkinson’s motion might be 

interpreted as an attempt to obtain reconsideration of the Court’s August 9 order, she and her 

counsel have failed to comply yet again with Civil Local Rule 7-9.

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Objector Wilkinson’s motion for an order 

directing the Clerk to accept $2,000 to be applied to the Court’s August 9 bond order 

[No. 592] is DENIED WITH PREJUDICE.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: October 13, 2005

Honorable Saundra B. Armstrong

United States District Judge
