Nygren, 332 F. 3d 462 - Court of Appeals, 7th Circuit 2003 he Sheriff cross-appeals, arguing that he should have been awarded all his attorney's fees, and not merely those incurred in bringing the successful motion for dismissal. The Sheriff argues that such full reimbursement is required by the text of Rule 37. However, Rule 37 supports only the reimbursement of fees resulting from the discovery violation. Fed.R.Civ.P. 37(c)(1) (allowing courts to require "payment of reasonable expenses, including attorney's fees, caused by the failure ") (emphasis added). As long as the suit as a whole was not frivolous, and we have no reason to believe that it was, the remaining attorney's fees would have been incurred even without the discovery violation; thus, the causality requirement was not met. http://www.iasd.uscourts.gov/sites/default/files/opinions/409cv185_0910.pdf 409cv185_0910.pdf Pursuant to Rule 37(d), the moving party may recover from a party who fails to attend a properly noticed deposition the reasonable expenses, including attorney’s fees, “caused by the failure.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 37(d)(3). Here, however, HSBC Defendants have requested more than the expenses they incurred as a result of Plaintiffs’ failure to attend their depositions. Defendants’ request for fees includes time spent reviewing pleadings, initial disclosures, and other discovery in preparation to take the deposition. Defendants also request fees for time expended preparing the notice of deposition and for scheduling the deposition. These events predate Plaintiffs’ failure to attend the deposition and thus cannot logically be caused by the failure. Such costs are not properly compensable according to the plain meaning of 37(d)(3). See Ranger Transportation, Inc. v. Wal-Mart Stores, 903 F.2d 1185, 1188 (8th Cir. 1990) (declining to award expenses incurred preparing for an aborted deposition, holding that movant incurred no recoverable expenses upon nonmoving party’s failure to attend deposition, where movant was able to take other depositions the same day); Criterion 508 Solutions, Inc., v. Lockheed Martin Servs., 255 F.R.D. 489, 496 (S.D. Ia. 2008) (charges incurred for time spent had the deposition proceeded as planned are not caused by the failure). Likewise, expenses Defendants incurred traveling to and from the aborted deposition were not caused by the failure and therefore are not compensable. See Gamblin v. Miss. Farm Bureau Mut. Ins. Co., Civil Action No. 3:07CV698 HTW-LRA, 2010 WL 1780221, at *10 (S.D. Miss. Apr. 30, 2010) (characterizing expenses incurred traveling to an aborted deposition as preparatory); Vision Ctr. Nw., Inc., v. Vision Value LLC, No. 3:07-CV-183 RLM, 2008 WL 4276240, at *5 (N.D. Ind. Sept. 15, 2008) (distinguishing between travel expenses incurred in preparation for an aborted deposition and those incurred in preparation for the resultant motion for sanctions). With these principles in mind, the Court holds the causal event and the appropriate reference point from which recoverable fees and costs began accruing was Plaintiffs’ failure to attend the deposition. HSBC Defendants did not prepare for the deposition, notice the deposition, schedule the deposition, or travel to and from Des Moines for the deposition as a result of Plaintiffs’ failure to attend. Therefore, none of these costs is recoverable. Defendants’ request for fees is accordingly reduced by a total of 9.2 hours1 , and requested mileage costs with respect to the deposition are denied. Costs and fees associated with making a record at the aborted deposition, including the cost of the court reporter, as well as fees associated with researching and drafting subsequent related motions to compel, to dismiss, and to reset case progression dates are recoverable. Defendants may also recover fees and costs incurred preparing for, traveling to, and attending the July 7 hearing. Ranger Transp., Inc. v. Wal-Mart Stores, 903 F. 2d 1185 - Court of Appeals, 8th Circuit 1990 Wal-Mart argues that the district court erred in ordering monetary sanctions for the failure of a Wal-Mart employee, Bryan Banks, to attend a deposition on May 26, 1989. Upon reconsidering its original sanctions order, the district court found that Banks' failure to attend caused Ranger no additional expense because Ranger's attorneys were able to take two other depositions that day, and because Ranger never attempted to reschedule Banks' deposition despite ample opportunity to do so before trial. Nevertheless, the court awarded Ranger $1000 for expenses incurred solely in pursuing the motion for sanctions. Wal-Mart argues that this was an abuse of discretion. We agree. Rule 37(d)'s authorization of monetary sanctions is limited to reimbursement for reasonable expenses and fees "caused by the failure" of a party, or an officer, director, or managing agent of a party, to attend a deposition for which proper notice was given. Because the sole purpose of Ranger's sanctions motion, filed well after trial had ended, was to recover expenses, the district court's finding that no such expenses had been incurred was, in effect, a denial of the motion. We find no authority in the Rules for awarding expenses of pursuing the motion in these circumstances. Cf. Fed.R.Civ.P. 37(a)(4) (authorizing award of expenses only for motions that are granted and "necessitated" by other party's conduct). Thus, even if Banks' behavior was subject to sanction under Rule 37(d), the district court abused its discretion in awarding Ranger expenses for pursuing the motion. Bailey v. FELTMANN, Dist. Court, ED Missouri 2014 Defendant's request for fees includes time spent "researching, evaluating, discussing, responding to and otherwise attempting to remediate Plaintiff's failure to attend his own deposition, including but not limited to the preparation of" the instant motion, plaintiff's response thereto, and researching and drafting his reply memorandum. These costs were incurred because defendant elected to take a particularly aggressive response to plaintiff's failure to appear, which the Court finds was not warranted under the circumstances. Further, because defendant's deposition was taken on the same day, defendant's counsel was not put to additional expense merely because plaintiff did not appear.
