Date

Background The plaintiff was Josef Volman. The defendants were Twohands 101 Inc., doing business as Two Hands Corn Dogs, and 215 Avenue B Realty LLC. The court stated that the parties were in the process of executing a settlement agreement.

Court’s action 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 was made within 30 days. It warned that an application filed after that period could be denied solely because it was late.

The court also stated that, if the parties wanted it 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. The clerk was directed to close the case. The opinion did not decide the merits of the underlying dispute.
