16
An order dated May 24, 2017, granted summary judgment in favor of defendant Jan-Pro
17
Franchising International, and entered judgment in its favor (Dkt. Nos. 266, 267). Jan-Pro
18
submitted a bill of costs, seeking recovery of costs of taking the depositions of plaintiffs Gloria
19
Roman, Gerardo Vasquez, and Juan Aguilar as well as plaintiffs’ expert, Steven Cumbow (Dkt.
20
No. 270-2). The total bill is approximately $3,535.40.
21
Plaintiffs do not object to any individual cost; however, they oppose an award of costs
22
altogether on the grounds that paying these costs would be a hardship for them due to their
23
limited financial resources, and awarding costs would discourage future meritorious wage and
24
labor suits (Dkt. No. 271). Jan-Pro may respond to plaintiffs arguments by JULY 6
25
.
26
IT IS SO ORDERED.
