ORDER 

This action is before the Court on Plaintiff Branch Banking and Trust Company’s (BBT) 

motion for summary judgment, brief, supporting exhibits, and the supplement (docs. 20, 21, 32).

Previously, the Court entered an order granting the motion for summary judgment and finding 

that the attorney’s fees, costs, and expenses claimed by BBT were reasonable (doc. 31). 

However, BBT was ordered to supplement its submission with additional evidence as to the 

attorney’s fees, costs and expenses for collection of the Notes, as opposed to the Guarantees. 

In the supplement, BBT states that it is unable to accurately delineate the work performed 

for collection of the Notes from the work performed for collection of the Guarantees. BBT 

requests an award of the full amount of attorney’s fees, costs, and expenses against Charles A. 

Maclay individually as the Guarantor and the against Maclay Construction, Inc., as the maker of 

the Notes. Alternatively, BBT suggests an equitable apportionment. 

Upon consideration, the Court finds that BBT is entitled to an award of reasonable 

attorney’s fees and expenses as follows:

the Notes.

Final judgment shall be entered by separate document as provided in Fed. R. Civ. P. 

58(a).
