Plaintiff,
v.

Case No: 5:13-cv-168-Oc-22PRL

TONERREFILLKITS.COM, LLC and
DUANE SIEBERT,
Defendants.

ORDER
This cause is before the Court on the Joint Motion to Review and Approve FLSA
Settlement and Dismiss Action With Prejudice (Doc. No. 34) filed on January 3, 2014.
The United States Magistrate Judge has submitted a report recommending that the
Motion be GRANTED.
After an independent de novo review of the record in this matter, and noting that the
parties filed a Joint Notice of No Objection to Report and Recommendation (Doc. No. 37), the
Court agrees entirely with the findings of fact and conclusions of law in the Report and
Recommendation.
Therefore, it is ORDERED as follows:
1.

The Report and Recommendation filed January 15, 2014 (Doc. No. 36), is

ADOPTED and CONFIRMED and made a part of this Order.
2.

The Joint Motion to Review and Approve FLSA Settlement and Dismiss Action

With Prejudice (Doc. No. 34) is hereby GRANTED. The Court finds that the settlement is a fair
and reasonable resolution of a bona fide dispute over FLSA issues.
3.

This case is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.

4.

The Clerk is directed to CLOSE the file.

DONE and ORDERED in Ocala, Florida on January 16, 2014.
