In Gutierrez De Munoz v. 2501 Webster Restaurant Corp., Judge Daniels ordered more time to file the parties’ settlement agreement.
The plaintiffs and defendants in Gutierrez De Munoz v. 2501 Webster Restaurant Corp., who were given until March 15, 2024, to submit their fully executed settlement agreement.
What happened
Gutierrez De Munoz v. 2501 Webster Restaurant Corp. concerns the parties’ request for additional time to submit a settlement agreement. The plaintiffs’ lawyer said the parties had finalized an agreement, the plaintiffs had signed it, and the defendants needed more time to sign it.
The parties asked to extend the filing deadline from March 1, 2024, to March 15, 2024. The document states that the agreement was made under Cheeks v. Freeport Pancake House, Inc., a case involving court review of certain employment settlements.
The filing bears Judge George B. Daniels’s “SO ORDERED” notation, and the requested extension was ordered through March 15, 2024. The document does not describe the settlement’s terms or resolve the underlying claims.
The detailed version

- George Daniels
- Mar. 4, 2024
Background
The plaintiffs’ attorney submitted a letter asking for a brief extension of the deadline to file the parties’ settlement agreement. The letter says the parties had failed to submit the agreement by the March 1, 2024 deadline and had finalized an agreement pursuant to Cheeks v. Freeport Pancake House, Inc., 796 F.3d 199 (2d Cir. 2015). The plaintiffs had executed the agreement, but the defendants needed additional time to sign it.
Requested Extension
The parties requested until March 15, 2024, to submit the fully executed agreement. The document does not provide the agreement’s terms or describe the underlying claims.
Ruling
The filing bears the court’s “SO ORDERED” notation dated March 4, 2024. The court therefore ordered the requested extension of the settlement-agreement filing deadline to March 15, 2024. The document does not state any other ruling on the case or the settlement’s substance.
