ORDER RE SANCTIONS

This matter comes before the Court following a hearing on the Court’s January 13, 2006,

the reasons stated on the record at the hearing, the Court ORDERS Plaintiff’s counsel to pay

$1,000 to the Clerk of the Court. This sanction is to be paid by Plaintiff’s counsel and shall not

be passed on to Plaintiff. The Court also wishes to clarify one aspect this Order as set forth on

the record. When the Court stated that it wanted the matter referred to the State Bar

Association, it was referring to its Order with respect to the amount of sanctions imposed, i.e.

the $1,000 to be payable to the Court and any further sanctions imposed in the form of

attorneys’ fees payable to the Government. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
