v.
EDWIN R. JAMES SR.
d/b/a OHIO STATE AUTO SALES,
Defendant.

ORDER
On September 13, 2013, this Court entered a default judgment against Defendant. (ECF
No. 15.) As part of that default judgment, the Court entered a permanent injunction against
Defendant and awarded Plaintiff both the costs of this action and, because this is an exceptional
case under 15 U.S.C. § 1117(a), reasonable attorneys’ fees in an amount to be determined. On
September 30, 2013, Plaintiff submitted the affidavit of its counsel indicating that the costs and
attorneys fees total $4,540.77. (ECF No. 16.) Defendant has failed to respond to that filing.
The Court has reviewed the affidavit and its attachments and concludes that the amount
sought is reasonable and appropriate. Consequently, the Court enters judgment in favor of
Plaintiff and against Defendant in the amount of $4,540.77. The Clerk shall enter judgment
accordingly and terminate this case on the docket records of the United States District Court for
the Southern District of Ohio, Eastern Division.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
