ORDER FOR ADDITIONAL

MATERIALS IN SUPPORT OF MOTION

FOR ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS 

Defendants have filed a motion for attorneys’ fees and costs, which is set for hearing on

April 2, 2010. In order to rule on Defendants’ motion, the Court requires the following additional

materials:

1. Evidence for all counsel as to whom fees are sought that their rates are in line with

the prevailing rates in the particular geographical areas in which they practice in light

of their experience and qualifications. This evidence should consist of surveys,

awards in other cases, or declarations by practitioners who practice in the relevant

legal market. 

2. A chart listing all depositions Defendants’ counsel attended and the number and

names of the attorneys who attended those depositions, as well as the time spent by

each attorney at each of the depositions; where more than one attorney attended a

deposition, Defendants shall provide a declaration addressing why the participation of

more than one attorney was required.

3. A chart or declaration identifying any time entries listed on the time sheets provided

to the Court in which time was spent by new counsel to familiarize themselves with

the case.

4. A declaration addressing whether the exercise of billing judgment as to any time

entries is appropriate and, if so, identifying time entries that may be excluded from

the Court’s fee award, if any.

Defendants shall file these additional materials no later than March 26, 2010. Plaintiff’s
