ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFFS' MOTION FOR AMENDED JUDGMENT

GERALD E. ROSEN, District Judge.

The Trustees of the Laborers Pension Trust Fund, Vacation & Holiday Trust Fund, Metropolitan Detroit Health & Welfare Fund and Michigan Laborers Training Fund brought this action seeking to recover from Defendant PG Simon On Site Inc. ("Simon") contributions due and owing to the Funds for work done by those of its employees who were covered by collective bargaining agreements with the Laborers Union. Simon never answered or otherwise responded to Plaintiffs' Complaint and a Clerk's Entry of Default was issued. Thereafter, Plaintiffs moved for Default Judgment. A hearing was scheduled on Plaintiffs' Motion, however, the day before scheduled hearing, the parties entered into a Consent Judgment, which provided in relevant part:

[See Consent Judgment, Dkt. # 10.]

Subsequent to the issuance of the Judgment, Defendant submitted its books and records to Kem Whatley, compliance auditor with the firm of Stefansky Holloway and Nichols, Inc., payroll auditors for Plaintiffs, to determine the amount of any contribution deficiency.

After completion of the audit, Mr. Whatley determined that Defendants' indebtedness to Plaintiffs for the period of July 2010 through December 2014 was $65,078.52, consisting of $59,171.55 in delinquent contributions; $5,574.28 in liquidated damages resulting from the audit; and $339.69 in liquidated damages resulting from late payments. [See Affidavit of Kem Whatley, ¶ 3.]

In response to the audit, Defendant claimed that work done by a number of its employees was not covered under the Laborers' Agreement with the Construction Association of America ("CAM"), but rather was performed under a Specialized Services Agreement which called for lesser contributions for employee pension and benefits.

Plaintiffs investigated Defendant's claim and found that it was inaccurate. Specifically, all of the work done by the individuals who Defendant disputed was performed at Simon's demolition project located at the GM Plant on Mound Road in Warren, which would have been covered by the CAM agreement.

In its Response to Plaintiffs' Motion, Defendant continues to assert that the work in question was not performed under the CAM. However, Simon provides no evidence to support that conclusion, instead it relies on a letter and emails previously sent by its counsel to Plaintiffs' counsel which present nothing more than counsel's belief that the audit results are inaccurate.1 Unsupported claims of inaccuracy are insufficient to rebut the validity of the audit. See Trustees of Painters Union Deposit Fund v. Ybarra Construction Co, 113 F. App'x 664, 668 (6th Cir. 2004) ("The company did not come forward with additional records to substantiate its arguments that ... the hours at issue should have been calculated using [a different] rate, that certain employees should not have been included in the computation, or that the total number of hours was too high. The results of the audit should be presumed to accurate, since no contradictory evidence was produced by [the employer]." Id. (internal footnote omitted)); Trustees of Detroit Carpenters Health & Welfare Fund v. River City Construction, 99 F. App'x 612, 614-15 (6th Cir. 2004) (in the absence of proof from the employer regarding the accurate amount, "the auditor's report is sufficient proof of the contributions owed to warrant summary judgment.")

Since Defendant here has provided no documentary evidence of any kind to establish that the auditor's conclusion is incorrect, it has failed to met its burden of rebutting the validity of the audit. Therefore, pursuant to the terms of the Consent Judgment entered in this case on April 3, 2015, the Court will enter an Amended Judgment in accordance with the audit results.

CONCLUSION

For the reasons set forth above,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiffs' Motion for Amended Judgment [Dkt. # 11] is GRANTED. Accordingly,

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that an AMENDED JUDGMENT be, and hereby is entered in favor of Plaintiffs and against Defendant as follows:

Plaintiffs are hereby awarded the sum of $65,078.52, representing the auditor's determination of Defendants' indebtedness to the Plaintiff Funds for the period of July 2010 through December 2014, consisting of $59,171.55 in delinquent contributions; $5,574.28 in liquidated damages resulting from the audit; and $332.69 in liquidated damages resulting from late payments, plus interest, costs and attorneys' fees pursuant to 29 U.S.C. § 1132(g)(2).
