JUDGE EDMOND E. CHANG
MOTION FOR ENTRY OF JUDGMENT
Plaintiffs, by and through their attorneys, default having been entered against the Defendant
on May 9, 2012, request this Court enter judgment against Defendant, PETRO PAVING
COMPANY, INC., an Illinois corporation. In support of that Motion, Plaintiffs state:
1.
On May 9, 2012, this Court entered default against Defendant and granted Plaintiffs’
request for an order directing an audit of the Defendant’s payroll books and records. The Court also
entered an order that judgment would be entered after the completion of the audit.
2.
Plaintiffs’ auditors performed the audit of Defendant’s payroll books and records on
October 28, 2011, March 29, 2012 and July 13, 2012. The audit findings show that the Defendant
is delinquent in contributions to the Funds in the amount of $215,321.61. (See Affidavit of Patricia
M. Shales).
3.
Additionally, the amount of $43,064.32 is due for liquidated damages and the amount
of $363,688.90 is due for compounded interest. (Shales Aff. Par. 6, 7). Plaintiffs' auditing firm of
Howard Levinson & Associates charged Plaintiffs $2,759.12 to perform the audit examination and
complete the report (Shales Aff. Par. 8).
4.
Pursuant to the Trust Agreements, a liquidated damages surcharge has been assessed
against the Defendant for the contribution months of August 2010 and September 2010 in the
amount of ten (10%) percent of the total contributions untimely received, compounded monthly at
two (2%) percent, for the period accrued through July 31, 2012, in the total amount of $352.95
(Shales Aff. Par. 9).
5.
In addition, Plaintiffs’ firm has expended the amount of $520.00 in costs and
$9,747.00 in attorneys’ fees in this matter. (See Affidavit of Catherine M. Chapman).
6.
Based upon the documents attached hereto, Plaintiffs request entry of judgment in the
total amount of $635,453.90.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs respectfully request this Court to enter judgment in the amount of
$635,453.90.
