AZRACK, United States Magistrate Judge:
On March 21, 2013, the Court issued a Memorandum and Order (the “Memorandum and
Order”) granting in part and denying in part defendant Metropolitan Museum of Art’s motion for
summary judgment. ECF No. 43. In that Memorandum and Order, the Court granted defendant
summary judgment as to all of plaintiff’s claims except the claim that defendant retaliated
against him, in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (“Title VII”), by denying
him overtime hours (the “Remaining Claim”). On April 5, 2013, I denied plaintiff’s motion for
reconsideration. On June 18, 2013, plaintiff filed a stipulation of voluntary dismissal with
prejudice, pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1), withdrawing the Remaining Claim (the
“Stipulation”). ECF No. 50.
Fed. R. Civ. Proc. 54(b) provides that “When an action presents more than one claim for
relief . . . or when multiple parties are involved, the court may direct entry of a final judgment as
to one or more, but fewer than all, claims or parties only if the court expressly determines that
there is no just reason for delay.”
There is no just reason for a delay in entering final judgment in this case. In the
Memorandum and Order, the Court fully adjudicated the parties’ rights as to all claims besides
the Remaining Claim, which plaintiff subsequently withdrew with prejudice.
1
Accordingly, the Clerk of the Court is respectfully directed to enter final judgment for
defendant, pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. Proc. 54(b), with respect to plaintiff’s claims for
(1) discrimination in violation of Title VII, (2) retaliatory termination in violation of Title VII,
and (3) breach of contract.
SO ORDERED.
Dated: June 18, 2013
Brooklyn, New York
