Order Adopting Report and Recommendations and
Granting Default Judgment
The Court referred Plaintiff Miguel Moragomez’s motion for the entry of a
final default judgment to United States Magistrate Judge Edwin G. Torres for a
report and recommendation. On October 30, 2020, Judge Torres issued a report
and recommendation, recommending that the Court grant Moragomez’s motion
in part and deny it in part. (R. & R., ECF No. 17.) No objections to the report and
recommendation have been filed by either party and the time to do so has
passed.
Nonetheless, the Court has considered—de novo—Judge Torres’s report,
the record, and the relevant legal authorities. The Court finds Judge Torres’s
report and recommendation cogent and compelling. The Court thus adopts the
recommendation in full (ECF No. 17) and grants in part and denies in part
Moragomez’s motion (ECF No. 15) as follows.
The Court enters judgment in favor of Plaintiff Miguel Moragomez and
against Defendants Seasin’s LLC and Antonio Sergio Fernandez, jointly and
severally, in the total amount of $7,762.71 ($1,713.60 in overtime and
minimum wages; $1,713.60 in liquidated damages; $485.51 in breach of
contract damages; $3,400 in attorneys’ fees; and $450.00 in taxable costs), 1 for
which sum let execution issue.
The Court directs the Clerk to close this case. Any pending motions are
denied as moot.

For the reasons set forth in Judge Torres’s report, the Court denies Moragomez’s motion in part
to the extent that it seeks a partially excessive award for attorneys’ fees.
