ENDORSED ORDER: Plaintiff has filed a notice of case settlement, indicating that a settlement has been reached in this case. (Doc. #13). The Court notes that, in the Eleventh Circuit, any settlement reached between the parties in an FLSA action is subject to judicial scrutiny of the terms of the settlement agreement. See Lynn's Food Stores, Inc. v. United States, 679 F.2d 1350, 1353 (11th Cir. 1982). Accordingly, the parties shall file their motion for Court approval of the settlement agreement by March 17, 2025. The parties should include information concerning the amount to be paid to Plaintiff (including liquidated damages), the payment of Plaintiff's attorney's fees, and whether the issue of attorney's fees was negotiated separately from the amount to be paid to Plaintiff for alleged FLSA violations. Signed by Judge Virginia M. Hernandez Covington on 3/4/2025. (MG)
