Case 2:05-cv-02299-CM-GLR Document 78 Filed 03/07/2006 Page 24 of 30 and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred because of such conduct.” 28 U.S.C. § 1927. Sanctions may be imposed under § 1927 “for conduct that, viewed objectively, manifests either intentional or reckless disregard of the attorney’s duties to the court.” Braley v. Campbell, 832 F.2d 1504, 1512 (10 th Cir. 1987). Like Rule 11, the court must apply an objective standard, and subjective bad faith is not a necessary showing for application of § 1927 sanctions. Because § 1927 is penal in nature, an award should only be made “‘in instances evidencing a serious and standard disregard for the orderly process of justice’” and the court must be aware of the “need to ensure that the statute does not dampen attorneys’ zealous representation of their clients’ interests.” Ford Audio Video Sys., Inc. v. AMX Corp., Inc., 1998 WL 658386, at *3 (10 th Cir. Sept. 15, 1998) (quoting Dreiling v. Peugeot Motors of Am., Inc., 768 F.2d 1159, 1165 (10 th Cir. 1985) (internal quotations omitted)). The court notes that, pursuant to Rule 11(c)(1)(A), both groups of defendants requesting sanctions gave plaintiff at least twenty-one days notice before filing their motions for sanctions. “The basic requirements of due process with respect to the assessment of costs, expenses, or attorney’s fees are notice that such sanctions are being considered by the court and a subsequent opportunity to respond.” Braley, at 1514. Plaintiff responded to defendants’ motions by arguing that claim and issue preclusion do not bar plaintiff’s claims, and that defendants violated Rule 11 and § 1927 by requesting sanctions. Plaintiff chose not to withdraw or amend its complaint. The court finds that sanctions against plaintiff in the form of attorney fees and costs are appropriate and necessary pursuant to both Rule 11 and § 1927 for four reasons. First, the mere fact that plaintiff filed a nearly unintelligible 115 page complaint, which the court already found violates Rule 8, suggests that plaintiff’s complaint, and the instant suit as a whole, was brought for the purpose of harassing defendants or -24- Exb 8 08-3187 Medical Supply Chain vs. Neoforma Volume XV 5752
