MOTION: DEFENDANT HENKEL CORPORATION'S UNOPPOSED MOTION TO TAX COSTS PURSUANT TO BILL OF COSTS (Doc. No. 156) FILED: September 14, 2016 THEREON it is RECOMMENDED that the motion be GRANTED.

On August 31, 2016, judgment was entered in favor of Defendant and against the Plaintiffs. Doc. No. 154. On September 14, 2016, Defendant timely file a Bill of Costs and the instant Unopposed Motion to Tax Costs (the "Motion"). Doc. Nos. 155-156. In the Motion, Defendant requests that the Court tax costs against Plaintiffs in the amount of $13,283.84, with post-judgment interest accruing at the legal rate pursuant 28 U.S.C. § 1961. Defendant has provided a detailed itemization of each cost requested and an affidavit averring that all costs were necessarily incurred for use in this case. Doc. Nos. 155; 155-1 through 155-6; 156 at 1-11. Defendant argues that all costs requested are recoverable under 28 U.S.C. § 1920. In the Motion, Defendant represents that Plaintiffs do not object to the costs requested. Doc. No. 156 at 11. Accordingly, the Motion is unopposed.

Based on the foregoing, it is RECOMMENDED that:
