This matter is before the court upon motion of the Plaintiff, through his attorney, Thomas
K. Barlow, for an award of attorney’s fees and costs associated with this action to confirm an
arbitration award pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 9 (2012). On February 3,
2016, Counsel for the Plaintiff Thomas K. Barlow (“Counsel”), filed a motion for attorney’s fees
and costs (ECF No. 19) pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(d). Respondents were served with the

costs associated with this action in the amount of $530.00 and for attorney’s fees in the amount of
$1,583.00.
The court has reviewed Counsel’s fee petition, and finds Counsel’s request for costs and
fees reasonable. Therefore, the Petitioner is entitled to an award of costs in the amount of $530.00
and attorney’s fees in the amount of $1,583.00.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
