ORDER

The Court notes that Plaintiff State of Arizona has filed a "Notice of Filing Form of Judgment" (Doc. 736). Because this filing is not a motion, the Court will not take any action on it.

Moreover, the Court notes that under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure ("Rule") 58(a)(3), a judgment for an award of attorneys' fees is not required to be entered in a separate document. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 58(a)(3). The State of Arizona is not entitled to the entry of judgment in a separate document for the Court's award of attorneys' fees (Doc. 726). The Court has previously declined such a request. See United States v. Business Recovery Servs., LLC, 2012 WL 3064253 (D. Ariz. July 26, 2012). The State of Arizona has not shown that a separate document is necessary for the execution of the judgment.
