IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MARCIANO PLATA, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

EDMUND G. BROWN JR., et al.,

Defendants.

NO. C01-1351 TEH

ORDER RE: STIPULATIONS

FOR ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND

COSTS FILED ON MARCH 5,

2013

On March 5, 2013, Plaintiffs’ counsel filed two stipulations and proposed orders for

collection of undisputed attorneys’ fees and costs: one for the second quarter of 2012

(Docket No. 2555) and one for the third quarter of 2011 through the first quarter of 2012

(Docket No. 2556). Upon review, the Court finds that the following needs to be corrected or

explained:

1. On Docket No. 2555 (page 2, line 3), counsel state that the billing is “for the period

March 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012.” It appears that the start date should be April 1, 2012.

2. On Docket No. 2556 (page 2, lines 3-4), counsel state that the billing is “for the

period June 16, 2011, 2011 [sic] through March 31, 2012.” This start date also does not

correspond to the beginning of a quarter. More problematic, the Court has already entered

orders approving the parties’ stipulations for billing for the covered time period, and these

orders state that the stipulations “fully settle[] all costs and fees” for the respective quarters. 

Docket Nos. 2431 at 2 (second quarter of 2011); 2441 at 2 (third quarter of 2011); 2475 at 2

(fourth quarter of 2011); 2489 at 2 (first quarter of 2012). Counsel must explain why the

claimed amount should be awarded in light of these prior stipulations and orders.
