A court of the Northern District of Texas accepted a magistrate’s recommendation to deny an insurer’s motion for attorney’s fees regarding a default judgment against the insured because heavy redactions and lack of detail presented insufficient evidence of fees or costs to establish reasonableness and necessity under the lodestar method and FRCP 54(d), but the court allowed the insurer to file an unredacted copy of the billing records under seal.
