In Pereira v. Whitehall Properties, Judge Vyskocil lifted the stay and discontinued the case after a settlement in principle, allowing restoration before dismissal with prejudice.
Plaintiff Rodolfo Pereira and defendants Whitehall Properties, LLC, Pan Am Equities Inc., Whitehall Properties II LLC, and John Dipaola; the case was discontinued after the parties reported a settlement in principle.
What happened
In Pereira v. Whitehall Properties, the parties informed the court that they had reached a settlement in principle. The court therefore lifted the stay that had paused the case.
The court ordered the action discontinued without costs to any party. The parties could ask to restore the case to the court’s calendar by September 25, 2023.
If no restoration request was made by that date, the dismissal would be with prejudice, meaning the action could not be restored. Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil also adjourned all other dates and deadlines without setting a new date.
