Plaintiffs,
v.
DOLGENCORP, L.L.C., et al.,
Defendants.
No. 4:11 CV 1589 DDN
MEMORANDUM & ORDER
On April 3, 2013, following a jury trial the court issued a judgment against
defendants for substantial sums of money plus interest and costs. (Doc. 230.)
Before the
court is the motion of defendants-judgment debtors for a stay of proceedings to enforce the
judgment until after the court's determination of post-judgment motions.
(Doc. 232.)
Under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 62(b), the court may stay the execution of the
judgment pending disposition of a motion for a new trial or to alter or amend the judgment
under Rule 59.
On April 30, 2013, defendants filed such a motion. (Doc. 236.) No party
has filed any objection to defendants' motion to stay enforcement of the judgment.
The
record of the action supports defendants' argument that they have sufficient insurance
and assets to satisfy the judgment. The court sees no prejudice to plaintiffs by the stay of
enforcement proceedings defendants seek.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the motion of defendants-judgment debtors
Dolgencorp, L.L.C., and Dolgencorp, Inc., for a stay of proceedings to enforce judgment
until the court's determination of any post-judgment motions (Doc. 232) is sustained.
