UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

REJEANNE BERNIER,

Plaintiff,

v.

TRAVELERS PROPERTY CASUALTY 

INSURANCE COMPANY, INC.,

Defendant.

Case No.: 11-CV-78 JLS (RBB)

ORDER: (1) LIFTING STAY, AND

(2) ORDERING THE PARTIES TO 

FILE JOINT STATUS REPORT 

REGARDING PLAINTIFF’S 

PENDING MOTION TO RE-TAX 

COSTS

(ECF Nos. 90, 105)

Presently before the Court is Plaintiff Rejeanne Bernier’s Motion to Re-Tax the 

Clerk’s Bill of Costs in Favor of Defendant Travelers Property Casualty Insurance 

Company. (Mot. to Re-Tax Costs, ECF No. 90.) On October 15, 212, while the Motion 

to Re-Tax Costs was pending, the Court stayed this action pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)(1) 

and ordered the parties to submit a motion to lift the stay within seven days “of the date the 

bankruptcy case is closed or dismissed, or the discharge is granted or denied.” (ECF No. 

105 at 3.) 

Although the parties never filed a motion to lift the stay, the Court notes that the 

underlying bankruptcy case was closed on August 20, 2013. See Order, In re Bernier, No.

silent on what happened next, but we may take judicial notice of the American Lands docket . . . .”) (citing 

Biggs v. Terhune, 334 F.3d 910, 915 n.3 (9th Cir. 2003) (“Materials from a proceeding in another tribunal 

are appropriate for judicial notice.”)).
