ORDER
KATHLEEN KAY, UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE.
On July 28, 2021, plaintiff was ordered to file a Motion for Summary Judgment with respect to her claim for wages, penalties, and attorney fees against Aeroframe Services, LLC, and to attach appropriate summary judgment type evidence. Doc. 97. Plaintiff was invited to “adopt the argument made by plaintiffs in Cooley, et al v. Aeroframe Services, LLC, 14-cv-987 unless this plaintiff has additional reasons for judgment in her favor.” Id.
On August 13, 2021, plaintiff filed a Motion for Summary Judgment and attached an affidavit setting forth the wages she claims she was owed and attached her contract with counsel where she agreed to pay one-third of her recovery as a contingency. Doc. 99. Plaintiff also made a claim for “an additional sum of $891.91 representing other unpaid wage benefits such as purchased vacation, regular earned unused vacation, and paid time off.” Doc. 99, att. 3. Plaintiff did not total her claim in her request. Defendant Aeroframe Services, LLC, filed an opposition adopting its opposition to Cooley, supra. Doc. 102.
On or before November 12, 2021, plaintiff is to amend her memorandum in support of her motion to set forth the amount claimed. The total amount is to be further broken down by amount for wages, for penalties, and for attorney fees only. The court will not do any math for plaintiff. 1 The “additional sum” included in the affidavit is unsupported by any documentation and was not an item included for the Cooley matters so that we are able to simply refer to our ruling there to substantiate that award. We consider the time passed for this plaintiff to make such a claim for any “additional sum” and will suggest to the district court that claim be denied. Plaintiff will have every opportunity to object to that recommendation at the time it is issued. 2
