The 6th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals affirmed a district court finding in Colosi v. Jones Lang LaSalle Americas, Inc., 2015 U.S. App. LEXIS 4184 (6th Cir. Ohio 2015), which found that the cost of imaging a hard drive is a taxable cost recoverable by a prevailing party under 28 U.S.C. § 1920(4).
Title 28, § 1920 of the U.S. Code details the taxation of costs a judge or clerk can award to a prevailing party in federal court. Subsection (4) allows a court to reimburse a prevailing party for the “cost of making copies of any materials where the copies are necessarily obtained for use in the case.”
