Re: Filing of Cost Bill / Entry of Judgment

Jadwin v County of Kern, et al. (1:07-cv-26-OWW-DLB)

To the Honorable Court:

Local Rule 54-292 requires the prevailing party to serve and file a bill of costs within “ten (10)
days after entry of judgment or order under which costs may be claimed”. On June 8, 2009, the
clerk made a docket entry (Doc. 385) noting that “The jury returns a verdict for the plaintiff”,
and “The Court orders partial judgment for the plaintiff to be entered”.

Plaintiff would appreciate clarification whether he is required to file his bill of costs tomorrow
(June 18, 2009), which is 10 days after Doc. 385 was recorded on the docket. Given that two
counts remain to be determined by this Court in a bench trial, Plaintiff respectfully suggests that
it would be more judicially efficient to postpone submission of Plaintiff’s bill of costs (and
petition for attorney fees) until after final and complete judgment has been entered in this action.

Given the shortness of time, Plaintiff respectfully requests the Court’s guidance on this issue as
soon as is convenient for the Court. Plaintiff had previously sent an email to the Court inquiring
about entry of judgment.

Respectfully,

EUGENE D. LEE
