Civ. 14-4023 (JRT/HB)

Claimed Allowed $40,527.50 $39,893.99 $8,788.70 $7,512.82 $38.04 $38.04 Total $49,354.24 $47,444.85

1

Defendant stated that they are claiming a total of $39,331.25 in transcript costs. Doc. nos. 306-307. When adding each individual transcript cost claimed in its supporting affidavit, however, Defendant is actually claiming $40,527.50 in transcript costs. See doc. no. 307. This amount also matches the amounts reflected in the provided invoices. See doc. no. 307-1. Because the clerk considers the total transcript fees claimed to be a typographical error, the clerk has adjusted the amount of transcript fees claimed to match the amount claimed when adding the transcript fees claimed for each deponent, or $40,527.50. Further, in its response to Plaintiff’s objections, Defendant agreed “to remove costs related to the delivery of deposition transcripts ($97.50).” Doc. no. 315, page 30. The amount Defendant agrees to remove, however, does not match the total amount of delivery fees claimed on the provided invoices ($137.51). Because the clerk cannot determine which delivery fees Defendant removed, the clerk has not adjusted the total claimed amount for transcripts and is denying all claimed delivery fees. 2

Amount claimed reflects the amount Defendant modified “to remove . . . certain travel costs related to the testimony of Danna Homan ($1,262.10) and Pete Spadaro ($56.39), and to account for the scrivener’s error in Dr. Caldeira’s costs ($18.00)” from the originally claimed $10,125.19 in witness fees. Doc. no. 315, page 30.
