ORDER
This cause is before the Court sua sponte.

On August 11,

2014, Magistrate Judge Michael T. Parker received a letter from
counsel for defendant Travelers Casualty and Surety Company of
America

(“Travelers”).

The

letter

advises

the

Court

that

Travelers, as cross-claimant, entered into a settlement agreement
with cross-defendants U.S. Coating Specialties & Supplies, LLC
(“U.S. Coating”) and Earl Washington (“Washington”), on November
27, 2013, and Travelers drafted a settlement agreement and consent
judgment. The letter also advises that Washington has not executed
the settlement agreement and consent judgment, and that Travelers
has not received any settlement funds from Washington.

Travelers

requests that it be allowed to re-file a motion for summary
judgment.
This case is closed, and there are no motions pending before
the Court.

Any of the parties involved, Travelers, Washington and

U.S. Coating, may file a motion to enforce settlement agreement
and/or motion to re-open this case.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that motions to enforce settlement
agreement and/or motions to re-open this case may be filed within
fourteen (14) days from the entry of this Order, and that responses
may be filed within seven (7) days from receipt of the motions.
