What happened
Marcus Pizzaro v. Veritas Property Management LLC, et al. concerns alleged violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act, New York labor law, and New York common law. The parties had negotiated and finalized the terms of a settlement and were preparing the materials needed for court approval of the Fair Labor Standards Act claims.
The court had required the parties to submit either a status report or a motion seeking approval of the settlement by October 20, 2025. Plaintiff, on behalf of all parties, requested another extension because counsel had overlapping litigation deadlines and the parties still needed to confer about the approval motion.
Judge Ronnie Abrams granted the extension, allowing the parties to file their status report or settlement-approval motion by November 20, 2025. The court also directed the Clerk of Court to terminate the motion listed at ECF No. 24.
