CIVIL ACTION NO. 3:14-CV-277

ORDER
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 filed a notice of appeal (Dkt. 205). The plaintiff’s request for transcripts at
government expense (Dkt. 216) is GRANTED.
Notwithstanding the entry of final judgment on the merits and the filing of a notice of
appeal, the Court retains jurisdiction over the defendant’s requests for sanctions and
attorney’s fees (Dkt. 208, Dkt. 210). Procter & Gamble Co. v. Amway Corp., 280 F.3d 519,
524–25 (5th Cir. 2002). The plaintiff’s motion for an extension of the deadline to respond to
the defendant’s requests for sanctions and attorney’s fees (Dkt. 219) is GRANTED. The
Court will consider the plaintiff’s response to the defendant’s requests (Dkt. 224).
