Order Denying Motions for Attorneys' Fees
[ECF Nos. 118, 121]
JENNIFER A. DORSEY, District Judge.
The Aria defendants1 and Melanie Saljougui moved for attorneys' fees after I granted summary judgment in their favor on all of plaintiff William Soto's claims.2 Saljougui later notified the court that Soto had filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in the District of Idaho.3 I reviewed the docket in that bankruptcy proceeding and discovered that a discharge under 11 U.S.C. § 727 had been granted to Soto.4 So, I ordered the defendants to show cause why their motions for attorneys' fees should not be barred by the bankruptcy discharge.5 The Aria defendants responded that they no longer intend to pursue their motion for fees;6 Saljougui failed to respond and therefore failed to show cause.
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the motions for attorneys' fees [ECF Nos. 118, 121] are DENIED.
