United States Ninth Circuit

The district court's award of costs following a jury verdict in favor of defendant is: 1) reversed in part, where the district court erred in awarding $1,310 in costs for the fees that defendant's counsel paid to be admitted to the Northern District of California on a pro hac vice basis, and for the costs of deposition editing and synchronizing, because 28 U.S.C. section 1920(1) does not allow for those costs; and 2) affirmed in part, as to the district court's award to defendant for costs for retainers and fees for graphics consultants, and costs awarded following the first jury trial in 2002.
