IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CRYSTAL A. LEWIS, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

 v.

BAYER CORPORATION, INC., 

Defendant. /

No. C 03-04403 JSW

ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND

RECOMMENDATION TO AWARD

REDUCED ATTORNEY’S FEES

The Court has reviewed Magistrate Judge Elizabeth D. LaPorte’s Report and

Recommendation regarding Defendant’s motion for attorney’s fees. The Court has also

reviewed the objections filed by Plaintiff on February 27, 2006. 

Having considered the Report and Recommendation and Ms. Lewis’s objections, the

Court finds the Report correct, well-reasoned and thorough, and adopts it in every aspect with

the exception of the total amount of fees imposed. Considering Plaintiff’s financial

circumstances and the fact that costs in the amount of $2,091 have been assessed, the Court

concludes that an award of attorney’s fees in the amount of $3,000 is appropriate.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: March 3, 2006
