Background
The docket indicated that mediation had taken place and that the parties had reached an agreement on all issues. The opinion does not describe the underlying claims or the terms of the agreement.
Order
The court ordered the parties to file one of two sets of documents by February 7, 2025:
1. A joint Cheeks submission and a fully executed proposed settlement agreement; or 2. A proposed judgment under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 68.
The order cited a Second Circuit decision concerning this type of settlement-related filing. It did not itself enter judgment or approve the terms of a final settlement agreement.
Disposition
Judge Philip M. Halpern ordered the parties to make the required filing by the stated deadline. Because the order addressed the procedure for documenting an apparent settlement rather than deciding the underlying legal claims, it is a procedural order.
