A party submitting a request to lay open books for the purpose of determining the amount of compensation pursuant to R. 213.2 RoP is liable for both the fixed fee and the value-based fee for the determination of damages (R. 132 RoP). 

 

Fees for compensation are not included in fees for provisional measures; they are separate proceedings. 

 

Combining claims does not reduce fees, including liability and quantum requests in one application does not remove or reduce the fee obligation.
