See Cheeks v. Freeport Pancake House, Inc., 796 F.3d 1999 (2d Cir. 2015) (requiring judicial fairness review of FLSA settlements).

March 27, 2023 Minute Entry for proceedings held before Magistrate Judge Valerie Figueredo: Status Conference held on 3/27/2023. (sjo)
March 20, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 136 ORDER: Based on a review of Defendants' letter at ECF No. 135, the Court: (1) approves the proposed revised definition of "Released Persons" or "Releasees" (see ECF No. 135 at 3); and (2) agrees that the release provision for non-wage claims (see ECF No. 132-1 4.2) is permissible. However, Defendants' letter does not address whether a non-mutual release for the wage claims (see id. 4.1) is permissible. Accordingly, a conference to address this issue is hereby scheduled for Monday, March 27, 2023 at 2:00 p.m. Counsel for the parties are directed to call Judge Figueredo's AT&T conference line at the scheduled time. Please dial (888) 808-6929; access code 9781335. SO ORDERED. Telephone Conference set for 3/27/2203 at 02:00 PM before Magistrate Judge Valerie Figueredo.

March 16, 2023 Filing 135 CONSENT LETTER MOTION for Conference to Clarify Denial of Settlement Approval addressed to Magistrate Judge Valerie Figueredo from Ian-Paul A. Poulos dated March 16, 2023. Document filed by 396 B'Way Realty Corp., AB & Sons Group, LLC, Isaac Chetrit, D & H Ladies Apparel LLC, IAJ Apparel LLC, ILE CLOTHING, LLC, Isak Perez, Salva Realty Corp...(Poulos, Ian-Paul)
March 15, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 134 ORDER: On February 10, 2023, the Court entered an Order (ECF No. 133), denying the parties' joint letter motion for approval of their proposed settlement agreement (see ECF Nos, 132, 132-1), without prejudice to refiling an amended settlement agreement. The parties are directed to submit a revised settlement agreement consistent with the modifications outlined in the February 10, 2022 Order by no later than Friday, March 24, 2023. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Valerie Figueredo on 3/15/2023) (rro)
February 10, 2023 Opinion or Order Filing 133 ORDER For the following reasons, the parties' motion is DENIED without prejudice to renew. The Agreement contains a liability release clause which the Court finds improper in two aspects. First, the release of liability for Plaintiffs and Defendants is not mutual. See Garcia v. Good for Life by 81, Inc., No. 17-CV-07228 (BCM), 2018 WL 3559171, at *3-4 (S.D.N.Y. July 12, 2018) (noting that releases must be mutual). Under the Agreement, Plaintiffs first "knowingly and voluntarily release and forever discharge Releasees of and from any and all Wage Claims, as defined in Paragraph 1.9." Agreement 4.1. Plaintiffs also "release, waive, and forever discharge Releasees from, or in respect of, all Non-Wage Claims, as that term is defined in Paragraph 1.5..., from the beginning of time through and including the Effective Date of this Agreement." Id. 4.2. However, Defendants do not release Plaintiffs from any liability. Next, the release clause is overbroad as it improperly releases from liability numerous entities beyond Defendants. See Lara v. Air Sea Land Shipping & Moving Inc., No. 19-CV-8486, 2019 WL 6117588, at *2 (S.D.N.Y. Nov. 18, 2019). Namely, the Agreement defines "released persons" or "releasees" as: and further set forth in this Order. As such, the Court denies the parties' motion for settlement approval without prejudice to refiling a revised settlement agreement that amends the release provision, as indicated above. Upon submission of a revised settlement agreement, reflecting these changes, the Court will approve the settlement agreement as fair and reasonable. SO ORDERED.
