AMERICA STEEL TRADE CORPORATION, Plaintiff, v. METALHOUSE, LLC, Defendant.


ORDER

ROY B. DALTON JR., UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

In this action to confirm an arbitration award, Defendant defaulted (Doc. 9) and Plaintiff moved for a default judgment (Doc. 12 (“Motion”)). On referral, U.S. Magistrate Judge Embry J. Kidd entered a Report and Recommendation (Doc. 13 (“R&R”)) submitting that the Court should grant the Motion. The time has passed and there were no objections, so the Court examines the R&R for clear error only. See Macort v. Prem, Inc., 208 Fed.Appx. 781, 784 (11th Cir. 2006). Finding none, it is due to be adopted in its entirety.

Accordingly, it is ORDERED AND ADJUDGED:

1. The R&R (Doc. 13) is ADOPTED AND CONFIRMED and made a part of this Order in its entirety.

2. The Motion (Doc. 12) is GRANTED.

3. The Clerk is DIRECTED to enter a final default judgment in favor of Plaintiff America Steel Trade Corporation and against Defendant Metalhouse, LLC as follows:

a. $747,150.00 in damages;
b. Pre-judgment interest of $204.70 per day from October 22, 2020, through the date judgment is entered;
c. $14,488.82 in costs; and
d. Post-judgment interest at the rate set forth in 28 U.S.C. § 1961 on the date judgment is entered.

4. The Clerk is DIRECTED to close the file.

DONE AND ORDERED.
