Background
On April 18, 2023, the court was notified through mediation that De Angelis USA Corp., Savino Del Bene U.S.A. Inc., and Sunteck Transport Co LLC had reached an agreement in principle resolving all issues. The opinion does not provide the underlying claims or the terms of the agreement.
Court’s Action
The court canceled all previously scheduled conferences and other deadlines. It dismissed the case with prejudice and without costs, including attorneys’ fees, to either party. The clerk was directed to terminate all open motions and close the case.
The order allowed the parties to apply within 30 days to reopen the case. Such an application had to show good cause for keeping the case open despite the parties’ settlement. The order also stated that, if the parties wanted the court to retain jurisdiction to enforce the settlement agreement, they had to submit the agreement and a request for an order expressly retaining jurisdiction within the same 30-day period.
Disposition
Judge Valerie Caproni dismissed the case with prejudice and without costs to either party, terminated the open motions, and directed that the case be closed.
