UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ALEKSANDR NIKOLAEVICH KASHIN,

Plaintiff,

CASE NO. 02CV2495-LAB (WMC)

ORDER REJECTING MOTION FOR

vs. ATTORNEY’S FEES FOR FILING

DOUGLAS BARRY KENT,

Defendant.

Following the decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals disposing of all issues in this case, the

Court on October 11, 2006 issued an order dismissing this case with prejudice. On December 5, 2006,

Defendant filed a motion for an award of costs and attorney’s fees pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2412. 

Defendant did so, however, without obtaining a hearing date from the Court, in violation of Civil

Local Rule 7.1(b) and (e)(1), and merely listed the filing date as the hearing date. Furthermore, the

motion does not explain why it should be considered timely, since it was filed 55 days after the order

of dismissal, well past the 30-day limit imposed by 28 U.S.C. § 2412(d)(1)(B).
