Background

The opinion states that the Court was told the case had been settled in principle. It does not describe the underlying claims or the settlement’s terms.

Order

The Court ordered that the action be discontinued without costs to any party and without prejudice to restoring the action to the docket if an application was made within 45 days. It stated that an application to reopen filed after that period could be denied solely because it was late. The Clerk of Court was directed to close the case.

The order further stated that, if the parties wanted the Court to retain authority 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. The opinion uses both a 45-day period for restoration or reopening and a 30-day period for placing settlement terms on the public record.

Disposition

Judge Ronnie Abrams discontinued the action under the stated conditions. The order did not decide the underlying claims.
