JUDGE
MOTION FOR ENTRY OF JUDGMENT
Plaintiffs, by and through their attorneys, default having been entered against the Defendant on June 7, 2010, request this Court enter judgment against Defendant, D THREE CONSTRUCTION CORPORATION, a dissolved corporation. In support of that Motion, Plaintiffs state:
1. On June 7, 2010, this Court entered default against Defendant and granted Plaintiffs' request for an order directing an audit of the Defendant's payroll books and records for the time period July 1, 2005 forward. The Court also entered an order that judgment would be entered after the completion of the audit.
2. As a result of Defendant's failure to comply with the Court's Order entered on June 7, 2010, on September 21, 2010, Plaintiffs' pursued show cause proceedings against Defendant to obtain documents to complete the audit.
3. Defendant eventually scheduled the payroll audit for February 1, 2011. However, Defendant failed to provide all documents necessary to complete the audit, and advised that the company is out of business, and that all documents available have been produced.
4. As Plaintiffs were unable to obtain documents necessary to complete the audit, there are no additional contributions due. Accordingly, Plaintiffs are seeking judgment to recover the audit costs, court costs and attorneys' fees incurred in efforts to complete the audit of Defendant's books and records.
5. Plaintiffs' auditing firm of Bansley & Kiener, L.L.P. charged Plaintiffs $1,545.13 to perform the audit examination and complete the report (French Aff. Par. 6).
6. In addition, Plaintiffs' firm has expended the amount of $658.00 in costs and $5,823.50 in attorneys' fees in this matter. (See Affidavit of Catherine M. Chapman).
7. Based upon the documents attached hereto, Plaintiffs request entry of judgment in the total amount of $8,026.63.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs respectfully request this Court to enter judgment in the amount of $8,026.63.
