This matter comes before the Court on Defendant’s Memorandum of Costs (#95), filed on
September 9, 2013. To date, Plaintiff has not filed any response or opposition to the Memorandum.
Defendant filed a Motion for Sanctions (#50) on June 17, 2013, representing that Plaintiff

17

failed to appear at his properly noticed deposition. Finding that Plaintiff did not move for a

18

protective order before he failed to appear, the Court granted the Motion for Sanctions. See August

19

27 Order, Doc. #88 at 4:18-25. Because Defendant only seeks reimbursement for the court

20

reporter’s fee, the Court need not engage in the lodestar analysis for attorneys’ fees. Defendant

21

attached an affidavit and invoice to his Memorandum that indicate the U.S. Attorney’s Office for

22

the District of Nevada paid $280.50 in court reporting fees. Accordingly,
