	MEMORANDUM & ORDER granting in part and denying in part 47 Motion for Attorney Fees: While the court agrees that plaintiff's limited success warrants a reduction in ocunsel fees, the court declines to reduce the fees as sharply as suggested by deft. Upon consideration, the Court holds that it is appropriate to reduce plaintiff's attorneys' fees and allow recover of 60% of the fees sought. In light of the foregoing, plaintiff is entitled to recover 60% of the $83,375. sought in attorneys' fees for a total of $50,025. SO ORDERED (Signed by Judge Leonard D. Wexler on 7/27/04). c/m (Montero, Edher) (Entered: 07/28/2004)
