UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA
TAMPA DIVISION

MICAH ELDRED, et al.,
Plaintiffs,
v.

Case No. 8:13-cv-2696-T-30EAJ

SEAFARER EXPLORATION CORP.,
CLEARTRUST, LLC, and KYLE
KENNEDY,
Defendants.
_____________________________________/

ORDER
THIS CAUSE comes before the Court upon Defendants’ Affidavit of Attorney’s Fees
(Dkt. 8). Plaintiffs failed to file a response in opposition to Defendants’ Affidavit by the
deadline imposed by this Court. (See Dkt. 7) (ruling that any response to Defendants’
Affidavit shall be filed within seven days of service). Upon review of the Affidavit, the
Court concludes that Defendants are entitled to attorney’s fees in the amount of $4,710.00
incurred in response to Plaintiffs’ removal. See id. (explaining why Plaintiffs’ removal was
not objectively reasonable).
It is therefore ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that:
1.

The Clerk of Court shall enter judgment in the amount of $4,710.00 for

attorney’s fees in favor of Defendants Seafare Exploration, Corp. and Kyle Kennedy and
against Plaintiffs, jointly and severally.

2.

This case shall remain closed.

DONE and ORDERED in Tampa, Florida on November 20, 2013.
