While his counsel raised objections at the hearing yesterday, Defendant Bruce 18 Barthelmy filed no opposition. After considering the parties’ arguments, the court GRANTS 19 20 Binkovich’s motion. The crux of the dispute is that Binkovich’s counsel was a few days late in filing his 21 22 declaration supporting the costs he seeks in this case and asks the court to consider his tardy 23 declaration. The case law in this area permits the court to consider a declaration that is a few days 24 late. 1 Because Binkovich’s late declaration has not prejudiced Defendants and otherwise 25 establishes Binkovich is entitled to the costs he seeks, the court GRANTS Binkovich’s motion. 26 27 Costs shall be taxed against Barthelmy in the amount of $5,176.97. 1 28 See Walker v. California, 200 F.3d 624, 626 (9th Cir. 1999); Rodriguez v. Barrita, Inc., Case No. 5:09-cv-04057-RS, 2014 WL 2967925, at *13 (N.D. Cal.
