Defendants.
___________________________________/
15
On November 10, 2014, the Court ordered Plaintiff to file supplemental briefing and
16
documentary evidence supporting its request for damages and attorneys fees. Docket No. 185.
17
Plaintiff complied with that order and produced, among other things, a 361 page exhibit detailing its
18
attorneys fees and costs. Docket No. 187. In its supplemental brief, Plaintiff seems to predicate its
19
entitlement to these attorneys fees on the basis of “prevailing” on its breach of contract claim.
20
The Court hereby orders Plaintiff to file supplemental briefing that shall provide:
21
(1)
A tabular breakdown of the compensable hours spent working on its breach of
22
contract claim, grouped by the nature of each task performed— i.e. “investigating
23
potential insurance coverage of the Plaintiff” or “communications with counsel for
24
HYSL, Inc.”
25
(2)
A brief explaining why each category of task set forth in the table— i.e.
26
“communications with counsel for Andres Mendoza”— is sufficiently related to its
27
28
1
breach of contract claim, such that it is compensable as a result of prevailing on that
2
claim.
3
This supplemental briefing and tabular breakdown shall be filed by Tuesday, December 9,
4
2014 at 11:00 a.m. Plaintiff shall serve a copy of their supplemental brief and evidentiary showing
5
on Defendant upon filing with the Court.

The hearing on Plaintiff’s motion and the Case Management Conference remain set for
Friday, December 12, 2014 at 1:30 p.m.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
