UPON DUE AND CAREFUL CONSIDERATION of the procedural history of this
case, together with the Plaintiffs’ submissions, it is ORDERED AND ADJUDGED as follows:
1) The Plaintiffs’ Motion for Clerk’s Entry of Default Against Corporate Defendants
(Dkt. 101) is granted for failure of those corporate Defendants to comply with this Court’s order

against each of the corporate Defendants which are the subject of the motion pursuant to Rule
55(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. The issue of damages shall be determined at the
trial of this case scheduled for the March 2017 trial month.

unnecessary in light of the Court’s granting of a clerk’s default against the two corporate
Defendants which were the subject of the motion.
3) The counterclaim of Grant Mason, LLC, is stricken for failure of that corporate
Defendant to comply with this Court’s order entered on November 23, 2016, at docket 96.
