UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

WESTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

FAYETTEVILLE DIVISION

SHIMODA-ATLANTIC, INC. PLAINTIFF

vs. Case No. 06-5109

TALON HOLDINGS, INC., ET AL DEFENDANTS

ORDER

Currently before the Court are Plaintiff’s Motion for

Contempt Citation against Separate Defendant Patrick Joseph

Lochrie and supporting brief (Docs. 71-72) and Lochrie’s

Response (Doc. 73). Plaintiff moves the Court for an order

directing Lochrie to show cause as to why he should not be

held in contempt for allegedly making a false statement to the

Court.

On November 9, 2006, the U.S. District Clerk made an

entry of default as to Lochrie (Doc. 34). On January 11,

2007, Lochrie moved to set aside the default on the basis that

he was never personally served with the summons or complaint

stating that the address on the Certified Mail Receipt is

neither his home nor work address and that the signature on

the receipt is not his signature (Docs. 59 & 69). The Court

granted the motion and set aside the entry of default on

February 5, 2007 (Doc. 70). 

Plaintiff contends that the statements made by Lochrie to

the Court in his motion to set aside the default are false.

In his response, Lochrie states that the address Plaintiff

utilized to serve the summons and complaint was a fictitious

address controlled by federal investigators in furtherance of

their undercover operations of which Lochrie took part during

the relevant time period (Doc. 73).

The Court finds no conduct by Lochrie that would arguably

rise to the level of contempt. Accordingly, Plaintiff’s

Motion (Doc. 71) is DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED this 20th day of March, 2007.
