Respondent: NO OPPOSITION

TENTATIVE RULING

Judgment Creditor Sysco Food Services of Los Angeles, Inc.?s motion for order for costs of enforcing judgment is GRANTED.

.

Judgment Creditor Sysco Food Services of Los Angeles, Inc.?s moves for post-judgment attorney?s fees and costs in the sum of $19,091.75 per CCP 685.040.

?The judgment creditor is entitled to the reasonable and necessary costs of enforcing a judgment. Attorney’s fees incurred in enforcing a judgment are not included in costs collectible under this title unless otherwise provided by law. Attorney’s fees incurred in enforcing a judgment are included as costs collectible under this title if the underlying judgment includes an award of attorney’s fees to the judgment creditor pursuant to subparagraph (A) of paragraph (10) of subdivision (a) of Section 1033.5.? (CCP 685.040.)

The underlying judgment for $44,874.95 was entered on 9/13/06, and renewed on 9/6/16 for $89,615.97. Because the underlying judgment includes attorney?s fees, Judgment Creditor is entitled to attorney?s fees and costs associated with the renewal. The court finds the request of $19,091.75 is reasonable.

There is no opposition. Motion is GRANTED.
