SIMMONS v. U.S

CALLIE GRANADE, District Judge

This matter is before the court on Defendant's Motion to Retax Costs (Doc. 172). The motion was filed almost nine months ago. Plaintiff has not responded.

Defendant asks that the costs of depositions "necessarily obtained for use in the case" be taxed against the plaintiff. See 28 U.S.C. § 1920(2). Because the depositions in question were relied upon and addressed by the parties in connection with the United States' summary judgment motion, it appears that they are properly taxable under the statute.

Accordingly, the motion is GRANTED. Costs in the amount of $8,253.25 are hereby taxed against Plaintiff.
