FILED NOT FOR PUBLICATION UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS APR 17 2017 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK U.S. COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT KEVIN BOGUE, No. 15-35078 Plaintiff-Appellant, D.C. No. 3:14-cv-05799-RBL v. MEMORANDUM* NCO FINANCIAL SYSTEMS, INC., Defendant-Appellee. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington Ronald B. Leighton, District Judge, Presiding Submitted April 7, 2017** Seattle, Washington Before: W. FLETCHER and GOULD, Circuit Judges, and BLOCK,*** District Judge. * This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). *** The Honorable Frederic Block, United States District Judge for the Eastern District of New York, sitting by designation. Kevin Bogue appeals from a district court order awarding him $1,001 in attorney’s fees. Because the district judge did not begin his fees analysis by first calculating the lodestar, Bogue asks that we vacate the award and remand for a recalculation of fees. See Camacho v. Bridgeport Fin., Inc., 523 F.3d 973, 982 (9th Cir. 2008). Under the circumstances, a remand for recalculation is so likely to result in the same award that we decline to do as Bogue requests.
