This matter has come before the Court pursuant to the Plaintiff United States' Complaint (ECF No. 1) and pursuant to the Plaintiff's Application for Entry of Default and Default Judgment Against Defendant (ECF No. 4.) The Plaintiff supports its application by declaration. The Clerk of the Court entered the Clerk's Entry of Default (ECF No. 5).

THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Default Judgment is entered against Defendant Jimmie Lee Pelton in favor of the United States of America for: (1) the amount of $54,952.79; (2) post-judgment interest accruing at the applicable rate; and (3) costs, including the $350 filing fee under 28 U.S.C. § 1914(a).
