Case No. 3:12-cv-00035-SLG-JDR
RECOMMENDATION REGARDING
MOTION FOR CONFIRMATION OF
SALE

(Docket No. 49)

Defendants.

Plaintiff GBC INTERNATIONAL BANK, LLC, has moved that the
Court confirm the sale of the defendant Vessel MISS CORINNE, at Docket 49.
The Vessel was sold by the United States Marshal at auction on June 21, 2012, at
Anchorage, Alaska, pursuant to the court's order of June 5, 2012 at Docket 42. The

Vessel was sold to the highest bidder for $321,000.00 and the full funds for the
vessel have been received by the Marshal.1
No person has appeared or opposed confirmation of the sale within the
time provided by Local Admiralty Rule (e)-(14)(j). More than seven (7) calendar days
have lapsed since the sale of the vessel, and, in accordance with Local Admiralty
Rule (e)-14(j)(2), the motion is ripe for an order from the Court. Therefore, the
magistrate judge recommends the Court find that:
1.

The sale of the Vessel MISS CORINNE to Michael Lloyd Monson for

$321,000.00 be confirmed; and
2.

The United States Marshal should be directed to issue an

appropriate Bill of Sale, deliver and release the Vessel to Mr. Monson provided the
Marshal is first reimbursed for his custodial fees and costs.
There are no objections to approving the sale of the vessel before the
Court. In the interest of justice and to expedite the business of the Court this
recommendation shall be deemed a final recommendation with no objections to
follow.
DATED this

9th

day of July, 2012, at Anchorage, Alaska.
