IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS
4SEMO.COM, INC.,
Plaintiff,
v.

No. 13-0297-DRH

SOUTHERN ILLINOIS
STORM SHELTERS, INC.,
INGOLDSBY EXCAVATING, INC.,
and BOB INGOLDSBY,
d/b/a BOB INGOLDSBY EXCAVATING,
Defendants.

ORDER
HERNDON, District Judge:
Pending before the Court is 4SEMO.Com, Inc.’s motion for assessment of
attorney fees pursuant to 28 USC § 1927 and the inherent authority of the Court
(Docs. 153 & 154).

Defendants oppose the motion (Docs. 158 & 159). As the

parties are aware, this matter is set for jury trial on August 22, 2016. The Court
finds that it is in the interest of justice and judicial economy to decide the issues of
fees and costs after the conclusion of the jury trial. Thus, the Court DENIES at
this time the motion for fees (Doc. 153) without prejudice.

4SEMO.Com may

refile the motion at a later date. Further, the Court notes that the parties have not
submitted the proposed Final Pretrial Order as ordered on February 10, 2016
(Doc. 151). Thus, the Court DIRECTS the party to submit via email the proposed
Final Pretrial Order on or before June 7, 2016.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
