HARTFORD LIFE AND ACCIDENT INSURANCE COMPANY, Plaintiff, v. BRENDA REYES and LINDA DISTEFANO, Defendants.
ORDER
WENDY W. BERGER, UNITED STAGES DISTRICT JUDGE
THIS CAUSE is before the Court on Plaintiff's Motion for Award of Attorney's Fees (Doc. 33). United States Magistrate Judge Daniel C. Irick issued a Report and Recommendation (Doc. 35), in which he recommends that the Motion be granted, and that Plaintiff be awarded $3,155.00 in attorney's fees from the interpleaded funds.
After a de novo review of the record, and noting that no objections were timely filed, the Court agrees entirely with the analysis in the Report and Recommendation.
Therefore, it is ORDERED and ADJUDGED as follows:
1. The Report and Recommendation (Doc. 35) is ADOPTED and CONFIRMED and made a part of this Order.
2. Plaintiff's Motion for Award of Attorney's Fees (Doc. 33) is GRANTED and Hartford Life and Accident Insurance Company is awarded $3,155.00 in attorney's fees.
3. The Clerk is directed to disperse that sum to Hartford Life and Accident Insurance Company from the interpleaded funds.
4. Thereafter, the Clerk shall terminate Hartford Life and Accident Insurance Company as a party to this litigation and restyle this case as Brenda Reyes, Plaintiff, versus Linda DiStefano, Defendant.
DONE AND ORDERED.
