Background The court received a letter from the defendant stating that the parties had reached a settlement in principle. The opinion does not describe the claims, the settlement’s terms, or whether the settlement was final.
Ruling The court ordered that the case be discontinued without costs to any party. It allowed the case to be restored to the court’s calendar if an application to restore it was made by February 2, 2023. If no application was made by that date, the dismissal would be with prejudice, meaning the action could not be brought back. The court also adjourned all other dates and deadlines indefinitely.
Effect The order ended the case subject to the stated deadline for seeking restoration. The opinion does not state whether an application to restore the case was later filed or provide any additional information about the settlement.
