IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KATHRYN HOGAN, et al., CASE NO. CV-F-03-6408 LJO GSA

 

Plaintiffs, ORDER ON ATTORNEYS’ FEES AWARD 

vs.

FRESNO COUNTY SHERIFF’S

DEPUTY MICHAEL ROBINSON,

et al.,

Defendants.

 / 

Having reviewed the supplemental declarations filed by Defendants Detective Robinson and

County of Fresno (“County Defendants”) and Patricia Towne (“Ms. Towne”) (collectively

“Defendants”), and having considered the applicable legal standards as discussed in this Court’s

December 21, 2007 Order on Defendants’ Motionsfor Attorneys’ Fees, the Court finds that Defendants

did not “give a specific accounting or reasonable figures” in their attorneys’ fee request, as ordered by

this Court. (See December 21, 2007 Order, p. 10). The Court notes further that Defendants failed to

submit evidence in support of their requested figures and failed to discuss what efforts may have been

duplicated for previously-filed motions. Therefore, this Court finds that the sum of $7500 is a

reasonable attorneys’ fees award for the motions for summary judgment and motion for attorneys’ fees

as to Plaintiff Charlotte-Marie Hogan. Accordingly, this Court:

1. AWARDS County Defendants $7500 in attorneys’ fees as against Plaintiff CharlotteMarie Hogan; and

2. AWARDS Ms. Towne’s $7500 in attorneys’ fees as against Plaintiff Charlotte-Marie

Hogan. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
