It stated that any application to reopen filed after that period might be denied solely because it was late. The court also stated that, if the parties wanted it to retain jurisdiction to enforce the settlement agreement, the agreement’s terms had to be placed on the public record and approved by the court within the same 60-day period. The Clerk of Court was directed to close the case.
