Background

The opinion states that the parties reported reaching a settlement on all issues. It does not describe the underlying claims or the settlement’s terms.

Judge Ronnie Abrams ordered that the action be discontinued without costs to any party and without prejudice to restoring it to the court’s docket if an application to restore the action was made within 30 days. The order also states that any application to reopen the action had to be filed within 30 days of the order, and that a later application could be denied solely because it was late.

If the parties wanted the court to retain authority to enforce the settlement agreement, the order required them to place the agreement’s terms on the public record and obtain the court’s approval within the same 30-day period. The Clerk of Court was directed to close the case.
