ORDER
This civil matter is before the Court on the Report and Recommendation entered
by United States Magistrate Judge H. Bruce Guyton on September 30, 2015 (the “R&R”)
[Doc. 34]. In the R&R, Magistrate Judge Guyton recommends that the Court grant
Plaintiffs’ Application for Attorney Fees Incurred in Defending Against Defendants’
Notice of Removal [Doc. 29], order that defendants pay plaintiffs $1,645.00 to
compensate for attorneys’ fees incurred defending against removal, and order that
defendants remit this payment to plaintiffs within thirty days of issuance of an order
adopting the R&R. There have been no timely objections to the R&R, and enough time
has passed since the filing of the R&R to treat any objections as having been waived. See
28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72.
After a careful review of the matter, the Court is in agreement with Magistrate
Judge Guyton’s recommendations, which the Court adopts and incorporates into its
ruling. Accordingly, the Court ACCEPTS IN WHOLE the R&R [Doc. 34]. The Court

hereby GRANTS Plaintiffs’ Application for Attorney Fees Incurred in Defending
Against Defendants’ Notice of Removal [Doc. 29], ORDERS that defendants pay
plaintiffs $1,645.00 to compensate for attorneys’ fees incurred defending against
removal, and further ORDERS that defendants remit this payment to plaintiffs within
thirty days of issuance of this order.
IT IS SO ORDERED.

CHIEF UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
