ALAN PARSONS; and APPERTAINING LLC, Plaintiffs, v. JOHN REGNA; WORLD ENTERTAINMENT ASSOCIATES OF AMERICA, INC.; and DOES 1-20, Defendants.
ORDER
ROY B. DALTON JR., United States District Judge.
Before the Court are:
1. Plaintiffs' Renewed Motion on Amount of Attorneys' Fees and Costs (Doc. 114 (“Motion”)); and
2. U.S. Magistrate Judge Leslie R. Hoffman's Report and Recommendation (Doc. 127 (“R&R”)).
In this trademark dispute case, the Court found Defendants in civil contempt for violating a preliminary injunction and imposed sanctions, some of which included awarding Plaintiffs attorney's fees for litigating the contempt motion. (See Doc. 108; Doc. 127, p. 2.) Plaintiffs submitted a Motion for attorney's fees and on referral, Judge Hoffman recommends granting the Motion in part and 1 denying it in part. (Doc. 114; Doc. 127, pp. 3-4.)
The parties did not object to the R&R and the time for doing so has passed, 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, the R&R is due to be adopted.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED AND ADJUDGED:
1. The R&R (Doc. 127) is ADOPTED, CONFIRMED, and made a part of this Order in its entirety.
2. Plaintiffs' Motion (Doc. 114) is GRANTED IN PART AND DENIED IN PART:
a. The Motion is GRANTED in that Plaintiffs are AWARDED $29, 993.00 in attorneys' fees.
b. In all other respects, the Motion is DENIED.
DONE AND ORDERED. 2
