O.H. v. Secret Harbor

Opinion

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT AT SEATTLE O.H, an individual, and C.D., an CASE NO. 2:23-cv-00060-JNW individual, ORDER Plaintiffs, v. SECRET HARBOR, a non-profit corporation; Defendant.

On October 29, 2024, the Court granted Plaintiffs’ Motion to Compel and ordering that Secret Harbor pay the reasonable costs incurred by Plaintiffs “for (1) obtaining a court reporter for Secret Harbor’s first deposition in this matter, (2) obtaining the transcript for that deposition, and (3) reasonable attorney fees incurred in filing this motion and the corresponding reply brief.” Dkt. No. 173. The Court ordered Plaintiffs to submit a fee petition, which Plaintiffs have done via their Motion for Attorney Fees and Costs (Dkt. No. 180). Defendants did not challenge the reasonableness of the award. And upon review of the motion and accompanying exhibits the Court finds that the fees and costs are reasonable given the prevailing market rates in the community. See

Gonzalez v. City of Maywood, 729 F.3d 1196, 1205 (9th Cir. 2013). Accordingly, the

Court AWARDS Plaintiffs $1,580.10 in costs and $3,170.00 in attorneys’ fees and

ORDERS Defendants to pay the same by May 7, 2025.

Dated this 29th day of April, 2025.
