EverySpace Construction, LLC v. Encor Solar, LLC

Opinion

1 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 2 DISTRICT OF NEVADA 3 EVERYSPACE CONSTRUCTION, LLC, Case No.: 2:23-cv-01105-APG-DJA

4 Plaintiff Order Granting Second Supplemental Motion for Default Judgment 5 v. [ECF No. 112] 6 ENCOR SOLAR, LLC, et al.,

7 Defendants

8 I denied plaintiff Everyspace Construction, LLC’s first two motions for default judgment 9 against defendant Encor Solar, LLC. ECF Nos. 106, 110. Everyspace’s second supplemental 10 motion addresses the defects I previously pointed out. ECF No. 112. Default has been entered 11 against Encor. ECF No. 101. The second supplemental motion satisfies the factors set forth in 12 Eitel v. McCool, 782 F.2d 1470, 1471-72 (9th Cir. 1986). I thus find good cause to grant the 13 motion. I award judgment to Everyspace of $25,000,000 in general damages and $20,000,000 in 14 punitive damages. 15 Everyspace also seeks $374,477.00 in attorneys’ fees and $467.85 in nontaxable costs 16 incurred in connection with this case. Everyspace has provided sufficient information for me to 17 evaluate the fee request under the factors set forth in Brunzell v. Golden Gate Nat. Bank, 455 18 P.2d 31, 33 (Nev. 1969) and Kerr v. Screen Extras Guild, Inc., 526 F.2d 67, 70 (9th Cir. 1975). 19 The rates charged and the time spent on tasks are reasonable. I therefore grant Everyspace’s 20 request for its fees and costs. 21 / / / / 22 / / / / 23 / / / / 1 I THEREFORE ORDER that Everyspace’s motion for default judgment (ECF No. 112) is 2||granted. The clerk of the court is directed to enter judgment in favor of plaintiff Everyspace Construction, LLC and against defendant Encor Solar, LLC for the following amounts: 4 $25,000,000 in general damages 5 $20,000,000 in punitive damages. 6 $374,477.00 in attorneys’ fees 7 $467.85 in non-taxable costs 8 Total Judgment Amount: $45,374,944.85 9 DATED this 31st day of July, 2025. 10 i GA _ ANDREW P.
