STATE OF WYOMING; et al.,
Defendant-Intervenors.
Before the Court is Plaintiffs Northern Cheyenne Tribe, et al.’s Motion to
Clarify Order Awarding Attorneys’ Fees and Costs. (Doc. 365.) Northern
Cheyenne asks this Court to clarify that its prior order (awarding Northern
Cheyenne the full amount it requested in attorneys’ fees and costs) meant to
include fees incurred during briefing on its fees motion (“fees on fees”).
Northern Cheyenne is correct that the Court erroneously omitted Northern
Cheyenne’s total for fees on fees when it tallied the final amount Northern
Cheyenne was entitled to. Accordingly,
