MICHAEL F. URBANSKI, District Judge.
This matter was referred to the Honorable Robert S. Ballou, United States Magistrate Judge, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B), for proposed findings of fact and a recommended disposition. The Magistrate Judge filed a report and recommendation on August 2, 2013, recommending that Hudson's Motion for Attorneys' Fees and Expenses be granted. On August 14, 2013, defendants filed objections to the report and recommendation consisting of references to five arguments previously raised before the Magistrate Judge.
The court has conducted a de novo review of the report and recommendation and the arguments raised in defendants' objection, and concludes that the report and recommendation appropriately considers the relevant facts and properly applies the law.
As such, it is accordingly ORDERED and ADJUDGED that the report and recommendation on Hudson's Motion for Attorneys' Fees and Expenses (Dkt. #86) is ADOPTED in its entirety and that plaintiff be awarded Fifty Three Thousand Two Hundred Twenty-Nine and 92/100 Dollars ($53,229.92) in attorneys' fees and expenses.1
The Clerk is directed to send a certified copy of this Order to counsel of record.
FootNotes
