Greenfield, concerning this Motion on July 10, 2006 and was authorized by Mr. Visciano to state that this Motion is unopposed. 1. Judgment entered in favor of Prairieland and against Defendant Ridgefield Farms,
LLC on June 13, 2006. The Judgment awarded costs to Prairieland upon filing a Bill of Costs within ten days from entry of judgment. As computed under Fed.R.Civ.P. 6(a), the last day for filing a Bill of Costs was June 27, 2006. 2. Prairieland filed the Unopposed Motion to Extend Time to File Bills of Costs on
June 27, 2006, which requested an extension to July 10, 2006. The Minute Order granting the Motion Unopposed Motion to Extend Time to File Bill of Costs was entered on June 29, 2006 and extended the time to July 10, 2006. 3. Prairieland requires additional time to compile information in support of a bill of
costs from the three-year period that the case was pending and to determine whether amounts that may be awarded pursuant to a Bill of Cost may be collectible. Prairieland and Ridgefield, through their respective counsel have engaged in discussions regarding the collectibility of the judgment. Prairieland cannot ascertain the prospect of recovery at this time. Prairieland is reluctant to incur the costs of preparing a Bill of Costs if the amounts that may be awarded are not likely to be collected. 4. In accordance with D.C.Colo.LCivR 7.1, the undersigned counsel has served this
motion upon Prairieland in the manner indicated in the Certificate of Service attached hereto. 5. As stated in the above Certificate of Compliance with D.C.COLO.LCivR 7.1.A,
counsel for Defendants has authorized counsel to state that this Motion is unopposed.
