Date Filed Document Text
October 5, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 17 ENDORSED ORDER: Plaintiff has filed a Notice of Voluntary Dismissal of Action (Doc. #16). As no answer or motion for summary judgment has been filed in this case, dismissal with prejudice via unilateral notice pursuant to Rule 41(a)(1) is permissible. The Clerk is directed to close the case. Signed by Judge Virginia M. Hernandez Covington on 10/5/2022. (DRG)
October 5, 2022 Filing 16 NOTICE of voluntary dismissal by Windy Lucius (Cunningham, Juan)
September 7, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 15 ENDORSED ORDER: In light of the Court's 60 day order (Doc. # 14), Defendant's Motion for Extension of Time (Doc. #13) is denied as moot. Signed by Judge Virginia M. Hernandez Covington on 9/7/2022. (DRG)
September 7, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 14 ENDORSED ORDER: On the basis of the Notice of Settlement (Doc. #11), this cause is hereby dismissed, without prejudice and subject to the right of the parties, within 60 days of the date hereof, to submit a stipulated form of final order or judgment, or request an extension of time, should they so choose or for any party to move to reopen the action, upon good cause being shown. After that 60 day period, however, without further order, this dismissal shall be deemed with prejudice. Furthermore, the Court advises the parties that "good cause" exists to reopen an action when a settlement agreement has yet to be finalized because of various delays. But incomplete performance of an executed settlement agreement, such as the failure to disburse settlement funds, does not constitute good cause to reopen an action. This Court does not retain jurisdiction to ensure performance of a settlement agreement because such failure to perform should be addressed in a separate breach of contract action. The Clerk is directed to terminate any previously scheduled deadlines and thereafter close this case. Signed by Judge Virginia M. Hernandez Covington on 9/7/2022. (DRG)

If a case management hearing is necessitated, the Court will set the hearing by separate notice.
