Background

The court received a letter from Plaintiff Sanjay Sookul stating that the parties had reached a settlement in principle.

Ruling

The court ordered that the action be discontinued without costs to any party. The order allowed either party to seek restoration of the action to the court’s calendar if the parties were unable to memorialize their settlement in writing, but the application had to be made by July 28, 2024. The order stated that if no such application was made by that date, the dismissal would be with prejudice.

Effect
