WO 

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE DISTRICT OF ARIZONA 

Acushnet Company, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

Thomas Allan Thiede, et al., 

Defendants.

No. CV-12-02508-PHX-JAT

ORDER 

 Pending before the Court is Plaintiff’s Motion to Release/Exonerate Bond (Doc. 

51). Initially, Plaintiff filed an ex parte motion with the Court for the entry of a temporary 

restraining order and seizure order. (Doc. 5). The Court granted Plaintiff’s motion, and 

ordered Plaintiff to post a $10,000 bond “as payment of damages to which Defendant 

may be entitled for a wrongful seizure or wrongful attempted seizure, prior to conducting 

the seizure ordered herein.” (Doc. 17 at 8). Plaintiff posted this bond, (Doc. 20), and the 

Court ultimately entered a final judgment and permanent injunction against Defendants, 

(Doc. 47). 

 Defendants have not opposed Plaintiff’s motion for exoneration. Because the 

Court has permanently enjoined Defendant, there no longer exists the potential for 

wrongful seizure. Accordingly, the Court will exonerate the bond. 

 For the foregoing reasons,
