Case No: 6:23-cv-1983-PGB-LHP

ASPIRE HEALTH PARTNERS, INC.,
Defendant

ORDER
This matter comes before the Court on the parties’ Joint Report Regarding
Settlement, indicating that the parties have settled the case. Doc. No. 25. Based
thereon, and given that this case arises under the Fair Labor Standards Act
(“FLSA”), it is ORDERED that, on or before March 14, 2024, the parties shall file a
motion for settlement approval under Lynn’s Food Stores, Inc. v. United States, 679
F.2d 1350 (11th Cir. 1982). The motion must be supported by a copy of the fully
executed settlement agreement. In the motion, the parties shall explain the amount
of wages Plaintiffs claimed to be owed, whether and to what extent Plaintiffs
compromised their claims, whether the amount of attorney’s fees and costs was
agreed upon separately and without regard to the amount Plaintiffs agreed to

accept, and, if not, evidence that the attorney’s fees and costs to be paid under the
settlement are reasonable. In addition, if the parties have agreed to any additional
terms such as a broad or general release, or confidentiality, nondisparagement, or
no re-employment provisions, counsel must explain why such provisions do not
impact the reasonableness and fairness of the settlement amount.
