LORNA G. SCHOFIELD, District Judge:
WHEREAS, by Order dated March 23, 2020, the motions for attorneys’ fees at Dkt. Nos.
226, 239 and 252 were denied without prejudice to renewal, after resolution of the Second

sanctions, vacated the order granting sanctions at Dkt. No. 150 and remanded the case for further
proceedings in the event any party wished to renew a motion for attorneys’ fees;
WHEREAS, by Order dated June 5, 2020, the parties were directed to renew any motion
for attorneys’ fees by June 17, 2020, and on June 17, 2020, the parties filed motions at Dkt. Nos.
303 and 304. It is hereby
ORDERED that, for the purpose of bringing this case to a close, the order granting
sanctions is reinstated, and the parties’ motions at Dkt. Nos. 303 and 304 are referred to Judge
Cave. A Fourth Amended Order of Reference will issue separately.
