UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF DELA WARE

US BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION,
et al.,
Plaintiffs,
C.A. No. 11-1155-RGA
v.
LAMAR GUNN,
Defendant.

MEMORANDUM ORDER

Plaintiffs have filed a motion to enter a judgment for sanctions. (D.I. 251). Defendant
responded. (D.I. 257). Plaintiffs filed a reply. (D.I. 259).
I earlier twice sanctioned Defendant in the amounts of$1,960 and $2,682. (D.I. 139,
154). I explained my reasons for doing so in a series of orders and opinions. (D.I. 52, 53 [at pp.
15-16], 109, 137, 138, 139, 154).
Defendant asks that I reconsider my earlier orders. (D.I. 257 at 5). It is too late for that.
Defendant has preserved his objections to the sanctions orders, and will be able to raise the issues
on appeal.
Defendant also points out that he won the trial. (Id. at 4). That does not excuse
Defendant's earlier conduct, or make unjust the imposition of sanctions for his earlier noncompliance with the rules and contempt in not complying with a preliminary injunction.
Thus, I GRANT Plaintiffs' motion to enter a judgment for sanctions. (D.I. 251).

Plaintiffs are DIRECTED TO SUBMIT A PROPOSED FINAL JUDGMENT that includes
the sanctions and that also addresses the overall resolution of the case. Plaintiffs should assume
that I am not going to grant their other pending motions. Plaintiffs are requested to submit their
proposed judgment no later than August 11, 2015. Defendant may respond to the form of the
proposed judgment no later than August 18, 2015.
