NOVA HARDBANDING, LLC, et al.,
Defendants.
ORDER GRANTING JOINT MOTION TO FILE UNDER SEAL
THIS MATTER comes before the Court on the parties’ Joint Motion to File Under
Seal, (Doc. 106), filed June 19, 2017. The parties in this Fair Labor Standards Act
collective action have settled their claims. In their motion, the parties state that they
intend to file a Joint Motion to Approve Confidential Settlement Agreement with a copy
of the settlement agreement to facilitate the Court’s review of its fairness. The parties
seek to file these documents under seal to protect the confidentiality of the settlement
amount and terms. The Court, having reviewed the Motion, being fully advised of the
premises, and noting that it is unopposed, finds that the Motion is well-taken and should
be GRANTED.
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the parties may file their Joint Motion to Approve
Confidential Settlement Agreement and its Exhibit under seal.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the deadline to file closing documents in this
case is STAYED until the Court approves the settlement.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
