UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DEBORAH L HARRISON,

Plaintiff,

v.

SELECT PORTFOLIO SERVICING, INC., 

et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 16-cv-02682-VC 

ORDER RE SANCTIONS

Re: Dkt. Nos. 23, 25, 26

The motions by the defendants for sanctions against Marc Applbaum, counsel for the 

plaintiff in this matter, are granted. In light of the facts set forth in the motions, none of which 

Mr. Applbaum disputes, sanctions are warranted under 28 U.S.C. § 1927 and the Court's inherent 

authority. Mr. Applbaum is ordered to personally reimburse Select Portfolio Servicing, Inc., et 

al. in the amount of $2,475.00 and JPMorgan Chase Bank $3,391.50 for the time and expense he 

unnecessarily caused them to undertake.

1

In addition, pursuant to the Court's inherent authority, Mr. Applbaum is personally 

sanctioned $500.00 for time he unnecessarily caused the Court and its staff, including staff from 

the ADR program, to waste. Mr. Applbaum is ordered to pay this amount to the Clerk of the 

Court by no later than August 31, 2016. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: August 4, 2016

 

1 Mr. Applbaum's objections to the time records submitted by JPMorgan Chase Bank are not 

well-taken.
