UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF OHIO
EASTERN DIVISION
Ohio & Vicinity Carpenters
Fringe Benefit Funds, Inc.,
Plaintiff,

v.
T&M Contractors, LLC,

Case No. 2:16-cv-876
Judge Michael H. Watson

Defendant.
OPINION AND ORDER
On April 13, 2017, the Court granted in part and denied in part Plaintiff's
motion for default judgment. Op. and Order, ECF No. 13. The Court denied
Plaintiff's motion for default judgment only insofar as it asked for an interim
judgment to be amended after completion of an audit. Id. The Court denied a
subsequent motion for default judgment for the same reason, directing Plaintiff to
move for default judgment only after the audit was complete and the amount of
judgment was known. See ECF Nos. 21. Plaintiff again moves for default
judgment, this time asking for a final judgment of a sum certain. Mot. Def. J.,
ECF No. 26.
For the reasons addressed in the Court's prior opinion, ECF No. 13, and
the exhibits attached to Plaintiff's amended motion, that amended motion for
default judgment is GRANTED. The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to enter
JUDGMENT against T&M Contractors, LLC.

The Court awards $120,225.94. That amount represents the known
unpaid fringe benefit contributions, liquidated damages on the unpaid
contributions, and attorneys' fees and costs. The Clerk shall therefore enter
judgment in the amount of $120,225.94.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
