ORDER

Background

All discovery in this case was referred as provided by 28 U.S.C. § 636(b) and Civil

Local Rule 72. This Court previously granted in part and denied in part Funai’s motion for

monetary sanctions against Daewoo and ordered Funai to submit a declaration

documenting its expenses of attempting to obtain discovery and of filing and prosecuting its

discovery motion, including attorney fees and costs. (Order at Docket # 354). The Court

granted Funai an extension of time to submit its declaration and gave Daewoo an

opportunity to respond (Docket # 373). Funai filed its pleadings in support of its motion for

sanctions as ordered by the Court (Docket # 406). Daewoo objected (Docket # 474). Funai

responded to Daewoo’s objection (Docket # 479).
