IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEBRASKA
CRABAR/GBF, INC.,
Plaintiff,
8:16-CV-537
vs.
MARK WRIGHT, WRIGHT
PRINTING CO., MARDRA SIKORA,
JAMIE FREDRICKSON, and
ALEXANDRA KOHLHAAS,

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

Defendants.
This matter is before the Court on the defendants' motion to stay
enforcement of judgment without a bond pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 62(a).
Filing 525. On April 20, 2023, the Court entered judgment in favor of
Crabar/GBF, Inc. and against Mark Wright in the amount of $2,750,000;
Wright Printing Company in the amount of $1,000,000; Mardra Sikora in the
amount of $1,250,000; Jamie Fredrickson in the amount of $7,000; and
Alexandra Kohlhaas in the amount of $3,500. Filing 512.
The defendants have asked the Court to stay execution of the judgment
during the pendency of to-be-filed Rule 50 and Rule 59 post-trial motions, and
during the pendency of any appeal, without requiring them to post a bond. At
this time, a very limited stay of execution on the judgment is warranted. The
stay will be continued to June 2, 2023, to provide the plaintiff with an
opportunity to respond, and to provide the defendants with additional time to
secure their bonds. See filing 525 at 3. The stay may be continued without a
bond if the plaintiff does not oppose the defendants' motion.
