Case 2:12-cv-00536-GMN-VCF Document 1095 Filed 11/28/16 Page 2 of 4
Plaintiff, Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”), Defendants Scott Tucker, AMG Capital

2
Management, LLC, Level 5 Motorsports, LLC, Black Creek Capital Corporation, and Broadmoor Capital
3
Partners (collectively, “Tucker Defendants”), and Relief Defendants Kim Tucker and Park 269, LLC
4
(together, “Relief Defendants”) have conferred to resolve various post-judgment motions pending before
5
the Court. Those negotiations resulted in the attached, proposed Stipulated Order Appointing Monitor and
6
Freezing Assets (the “Proposed Stipulated Order”). The Proposed Stipulated Order resolves the pending
7
Motion for Order Directing Turnover of Assets (ECF No. 1059, “Turnover Motion”), the Motion for
8
Appointment of a Receiver (ECF No. 1064 (filed under seal), “Receiver Motion”), the oppositions filed to
9
those motions, and issues related to a stay of execution that will arise once the Tucker Defendants, or the
10
Tucker Defendants and Relief Defendants file a notice of appeal (due November 29, 2016). Specifically,
11
the parties have agreed, inter alia, to: (i) a stay of execution upon filing a notice of appeal by the Tucker
12
Defendants or by the Tucker Defendants and Relief Defendants; (ii) the imposition of a post-judgment
13
asset freeze while the anticipated appeal is pending (but subject to certain carve-outs and time limitations);
14
and (iii) the appointment of a monitor to oversee the asset freeze and the orderly sale of certain assets the
15
Tucker Defendants have agreed to liquidate while the appeal is pending.
Thus, the FTC, Tucker Defendants and Relief Defendants respectfully request that the Court enter
16
17
the attached proposed order. Entry of the Proposed Stipulated Order will make adjudication of the
18
Turnover Motion and Receiver Motion unnecessary, as the issues addressed in each motion have been
19
resolved in the Proposed Stipulated Order.

(ECF No. 1057). In the Order, the Court ordered, inter alia, the Tucker Defendants to pay the Commission
$1,266,084,156 within fourteen days of entry; and similarly ordered relief defendants Kim Tucker and Park
269 LLC to pay $19,072,774 and $8,000,000, respectively. Order, Section VI.B-C. To date, the FTC has
not received any payments from the Tucker Defendants or the Relief Defendants.
2.
To facilitate post-judgment collection and enforcement of the Court’s Order, the FTC filed a
Motion for Order Directing Turnover of Assets (ECF No. 1059, “Turnover Motion”) and a Motion for
Appointment of a Receiver (ECF No. 1064 (filed under seal), “Receiver Motion”). The Tucker Defendants
have opposed each motion. See generally, Tucker Defendants’ Response in Opposition to FTC’s Motion
for Order Directing Turnover of Assets (ECF No. 1061); Tucker Defendants’ Opposition to Motion for

9
appropriate, the Monitor shall file additional report or reports (the “Supplemental Reports”) describing the
10
subsequent actions and a subsequent application for the payment of fees and expenses related to the
11
subsequent acts;
12
B.

objection, will issue an order directing that the Monitor:

15
compensation of the Monitor and the Monitors’ personnel, and the actual out-of pocket
