Keith Stansell, and others, Plaintiffs, v. Revolutionary Armed Forces of Columbia, Defendant.
Case No. 19-20896-Civ-Scola
United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida
August 29, 2025
This matter was referred (ECF No. 875) to United States Magistrate Judge Edwin G. Torres for a report and recommendation on the Plaintiffs’ motion seeking the entry of a final turnover judgment on writs of garnishment issued to Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (Pls.’ Mot., ECF No. 838). Judge Torres issued a report, recommending that the Court grant the motion and enter a turnover judgment in the Plaintiffs’ favor. (Rep. & Recs., ECF No. 942.) No objections have been filed and the time to do so has passed. Irrespective of the lack of objections, the Court has considered Judge Torres‘s report on a de novo basis and finds it cogent and compelling and thus adopts it in full (ECF No. 942), granting the Plaintiffs’ motion (ECF No. 838) and entering a final turnover judgment as follows.
- The Court orders Garnishee Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas to turn over to the Plaintiffs all the blocked assets in accounts***246, ***264, ***694, ***857, and ***853 as identified in its answer (ECF No. 762). Turnover must be effected in the manner previously agreed to by the parties.
- Upon satisfaction of this turnover judgment, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas’ obligations under the writ, with respect to the blocked accounts, will be discharged.
Done and ordered, in Miami, Florida, on August 29, 2025.
Robert N. Scola, Jr.
