Plaintiff,
v.
DOLGENCORP, LLC,
Defendant.

Case No. 1:17-CV-210-SNLJ

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
This matter is before the Court on defendant’s motion for sanctions (#52). This
Court ordered plaintiff to pay defendant $255 in attorneys’ fees by March 8, 2019
following the Court’s granting of defendant’s motion to compel plaintiff to appear at a
deposition. Plaintiff has not paid defendant. Plaintiff responded to the motion for
sanctions on the same day the motion was filed. She states that counsel sent a check to
defense counsel that day, and that mere inadvertence and not purposeful conduct caused
the delay. Defendant has not filed a reply.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that defendant Dolgencorp’s motion for sanctions
(#53) is DENIED as moot.
So ordered this 24th

day of May, 2019.
