Pending before the Court is Plaintiff Spectrum’s unopposed motion to stay costs and petition

14

for attorney fees. Docket No. 390. Specifically, Spectrum requests that the Court stay the deadlines

15

for any taxation of costs and petition for attorney fees pursuant to Local Rule 54-1 and/or Local Rule

16

54-6, until after resolution of the appeal. Id. Alternatively, the parties request a three-week

17

extension of time for the submission of costs or petition for attorney fees. Id. Spectrum represents

18

that Defendant is currently a “prevailing party,” and thus may be entitled to court costs or reasonable

19

attorney fees. Id. Thus, Spectrum requests the stay because it asserts that a substantial likelihood

20

exists that Spectrum’s appeal of the decision and judgment entered on February 20, 2015, will be

21

successful, in which event the qualifying “prevailing party” may change. Id., at 2. Accordingly,

22

Plaintiff Spectrum’s unopposed motion to stay costs and petition for attorney fees (Docket No. 390)

23

is GRANTED. The deadline for the submission of costs or petition for attorney fees shall be stayed

24

until after resolution of the appeal.
