The moving party sought costs for a motion for non-party productions.
The responding parties consented to the relief sought, but only after the moving party had prepared and filed its motion materials.
The moving party argued the motion was necessitated by the responding parties' failure to cooperate and obtain relevant records from their bank and accountant.
The court agreed, finding the responding parties had an obligation to inquire and obtain relevant documents, and their inaction necessitated the motion.
Costs were awarded to the moving party fixed at $5,000.
