FINAL JUDGMENT
In two separate opinions, the Court has granted the defendant’s motion for
summary judgment on the plaintiff’s claims against it and granted the plaintiff’s motion
for summary judgment on the defendant’s counterclaims against him (Dkt. 175 and Dkt.
203). The plaintiff has already filed a notice of appeal (Dkt. 205). Having disposed of all
claims for relief in the case, the Court enters this FINAL JUDGMENT as required by
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 58(a) and TERMINATES this case from its active
docket.
The Court notes that there are collateral matters still pending before it—namely,
the defendant’s requests for sanctions and attorney’s fees and the plaintiff’s request for
transcripts at government expense (Dkt. 208, Dkt. 210, and Dkt. 216). The Court retains
jurisdiction over those collateral matters notwithstanding the entry of final judgment on

1/2

the merits and the filing of a notice of appeal. Procter & Gamble Co. v. Amway Corp.,
280 F.3d 519, 524–25 (5th Cir. 2002).
SIGNED at Galveston, Texas, this 29th day of March, 2018.
