1

The Court reduced the mileage reimbursement from the amount claimed of $268.40 to
$148.74, which represents 268 miles times work reimbursement rate of $0.555 per mile. The Court
also reduced the lodging from $1,419.58 to $500.00 because Rule 83.6 requires advance approval
for the expenditure of any amount exceeding $500.00, and no advance approval was sought for
lodging in excess of that amount.
