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 a

Pursuant to 29 U.S.C. 207 of the Fair Labor Standards Act and Stipulation for Dismissal

The Court FINDS the settlement is a fair and reasonable resolution of a

bona fide dispute under the FLSA.
