What happened

Judge Ronnie Abrams directed the Clerk of Court to close the case.

Ronnie Abrams
Date
Sept. 2, 2025

Background

The opinion states that the court was informed that the action had been settled in principle. It does not provide the settlement’s terms, identify the claims, or state that the court approved a final settlement.

Ruling

The court ordered that the action be discontinued without costs to any party and without prejudice to restoring the action to the court’s docket if an application to restore it was made within 45 days. The court stated that any application to reopen filed after that period could be denied solely because it was late.

The court further stated that, if the parties wanted the court to retain jurisdiction to enforce a settlement agreement, the agreement’s terms had to be placed on the public record and approved by the court within the same 30-day period identified in the order. The Clerk of Court was directed to close the case.

Effect

This order closed the case without deciding the underlying claims. It preserved a limited opportunity to seek restoration within 45 days and described a process for seeking continued court enforcement of a settlement. Judge Ronnie Abrams did not make a merits ruling in the text provided.
