ORDER
1.

The joint motion, Doc. 20, 1s granted.

The proposed

settlement is fair, reasonable, and adequate. Lynn's Food Stores, Inc. v.

United States, 679 F.2d 1350, 1353 (11th Cir. 1982); see also Barbee v. Big
River Steel, LLC, 927 F.3d 1024, 2027 (8th Cir. 2019); Melgar v. OK Foods,
902 F.3d 775, 779 (8th Cir. 2018). It reflects a good-faith compromise of
the parties' wage-related dispute. The Court applauds the bullet-point
listing of the legal sources of all the released claims. Doc. 21 at 3. This
way of listing promotes clarity.

And the attorney's fee, though

allocated in the settlement agreement, was negotiated separately. The
Court will dismiss the complaint with prejudice and retain jurisdiction
for a time to enforce the settlement.
2.

The embedded motion to withdraw the motion to enforce

settlement, Doc. 18, is granted. Doc. 18 is withdrawn without prejudice.

So Ordered.
