NO. CIV S-03-0591-MCE-GGH-P

ORDER DENYING REQUEST FOR

AUTHORITY TO INCUR COSTS 

-

ORDER

Plaintiff’s appointed counsel has filed a second ex parte request for authority to incur

costs for an additional $5000. However, when the court through court staff sought further

information informally by telephone as to the basis of the request, i.e., the per hour fee and an

approximation of the number of hours for trial preparation and testimony of plaintiff’s rebuttal

expert witness, no response whatever was forthcoming from counsel. The request is therefore

DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

DATED: 5/12/06 /s/ Gregory G. Hollows
