February 15, 2013 Filing 173 MEMORANDUM ORDER denying 158 Motion for Attorney Fees; denying 163 Motion for Attorney Fees. On October 10, 2012, I granted the defendants' ("Libraries") and the defendant-intervenors' ("NFB") motions for summary judgment and held, among other things, that their participation in the Mass Digitization Project and the present application of the HathiTrust Digital Library are protected under fair use. See Authors Guild, Inc. v. HathiTrust, No. 11 Civ. 6351,2012 WL 4808939, at *15 (S.D.N.Y. Oct. 10, 2012). Familiarity with that Opinion and Order is assumed. The Libraries and NFB now move for costs and attorneys' fees under Rule 54(d) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 505. The motions for costs and attorneys' fees are denied. The Clerk of Court is instructed to close the open motions. (Signed by Judge Harold Baer on 2/14/2013) (mro) Modified on 2/19/2013 (mro).
