Date Filed Document Text
March 10, 2017 Opinion or Order Filing 43 ORDER OF DISMISSAL: The Court finds that the terms of the proposed settlement agreement are fair, reasonable, and adequate, both to redress Plaintiff's claims in this action and to compensate Plaintiff's counsel for their legal fees, and the agreement is therefore approved, with the following exception: the Confidentiality provision at paragraph 7 of the Settlement Agreement (Dkt. 41-1, at 4 paragraph 7) is stricken. The Court notes that this Order does not incorporate the terms of the parties' proposed agreement. Further, the settlement agreement does not recite that this Court will retain jurisdiction to enforce its terms, and this Court has made no independent determination to retain jurisdiction. Accordingly, nothing in this Court's approval of the settlement under Cheeks should be construed as such a determination. See Hendrickson v. United States, 791 F.3d 354, 359-60 (2d Cir. 2015) (finding that a federal court will retain ancillary jurisdiction to enforce a settlement only where it has (1) expressly retained jurisdiction over enforcement of the agreement, or (2) incorporated the terms of the parties' settlement agreement in a court order); see also Mao v. Mee Chi Corp., No. 15cv1799 (JCF), 2016 WL 6754342, at* 1 (S.D.N.Y. Feb. 11, 2016) (finding no retention of jurisdiction in the context of judicial approval of an FLSA settlement, on the ground that "[i]t is not enough that the court somehow have given the settlement its 'judicial imprimatur'" (citing Hendrickson, 791 F.3d at 358-59)). As a result of the Court's approval of the parties' proposed settlement, and the parties' submission of a Stipulated Order of Dismissal (Dkt. 41-1), this action is hereby discontinued with prejudice and without costs. The Clerk of Court is directed to terminate Dkt. 41, and to close this case on the Docket of the Court. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Debra C. Freeman on 3/10/2017) (mro) Modified on 3/13/2017 (mro).
