MEMORANDUM

HARVEY BARTLE, III, District Judge.

The plaintiffs are a union, its various benefit funds, and the trustee of one of the funds. They have brought this action against defendant Ruggear Painting, Inc. ("Ruggear") for allegedly failing to make contributions to the funds between 2008 and 2012 that were required under a series of collective bargaining agreements between the union and Ruggear. The plaintiffs requested a judgment in the amount of $248,989.57 in principal contributions from August 2008 through the present, plus $15,273.41 in interest, $64,797.91 in liquidated damages, and $18,384.30 in attorneys' fees, for a total judgment of $347,445.19. In the alternative, the plaintiffs requested a judgment of $186,953 for the payments owed from the period of October 2010 through February 2012, plus $6,640 in interest, $48,640.60 in liquidated damages, and $18,384.30 in attorneys' fees, for a total judgment of $260,617.90.

The President of Ruggear, Anthony Ruggear, admitted in his deposition during discovery that he stopped making the required payments to the plaintiffs in October 2010 and owes the plaintiffs "roughly $187,000." Ruggear denies that anything else is due. Accordingly, we will grant the plaintiffs' request for summary judgment in the amount of $186,953 for the contribution payments owed from the period of October 2010 through February 2012.

The plaintiffs produced a declaration of Thomas J. Crowther ("Crowther"), the administrator of the funds, in support of their summary judgment motion. This declaration states that Ruggear owes $248,989.57 in principal contributions from August 2008 through the present, $15,273.41 in interest, $64,797.91 in liquidated damages, and $18,384.30 in attorneys' fees. Crowther's declaration does not, however, provide the amount of interest and liquidated damages owed on the amount of the principal that has been conceded, that is $186,953. The plaintiffs' briefing contends that these amounts are $6,640 in interest and $48,640.60 in liquidated damages. The plaintiffs have not produced sufficient evidence for us to determine how these calculations were made.

Regarding the interest, the only evidence that the plaintiffs have adduced is that it was to accrue "from the due date of the contribution ... at the rate charged at the time of the audit by the Internal Revenue Service for delinquent taxes in accordance with Sec 6621(a) of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to the period of delinquency plus one percentage point in excess of such rate." The plaintiffs have not established the interest rate charged by the IRS for delinquent taxes during the period of delinquency. This rate changes quarterly. Nor have they explained whether this interest was simple or compounded. We do not have enough information to determine whether the plaintiffs' attorneys are correct that the interest on the $186,953 should be $6,640, and no declaration has been produced to this effect. Accordingly, we must deny the request for $6,640 in interest.

As for the liquidated damages, the agreements between the parties provided for liquidated damages in the amount of $500 "[i]f a contribution report is submitted by the due date, but the contribution owed is not received by the due date" or in the amount of $750 "[i]f neither a contribution report nor the contributions owed are received by the due date." Again, there is nothing in the record regarding whether or not contribution reports were submitted, regarding the liquidated damages owed solely on the amount of principal that has been conceded. Accordingly, we must deny the motion for summary judgment insofar as it requests $48,640.60 in liquidated damages.

We will grant the request for $18,384.30 in attorneys' fees because Crowther declared this amount to be true and correct, and the amount of attorneys' fees does not change depending on the amount of principal.

In sum, we will enter judgment in the amount of $186,953 in principal and $18,384.30 in attorneys' fees for a total judgment of $205,337.30.
