Nieves Romero Rivera et al v. Silver Star Cleaners Inc. et al
Filing 60
ORDER: The parties have submitted a revised settlement agreement in this Fair Labor Standards Act case. Pursuant to Cheeks v. Freeport Pancake House, Inc., 796 F.3d 199 (2d Cir. 2015), the Court must determine whether the settlement is fair and reaso nable. The parties' most recent version of the settlement agreement still includes a clause where the parties "agree to enter a Judgment on consent in the amount of $24,000." ECF No. 59-1 at 2. As the Court previously noted, the settlement agreement itself "is an enforceable contract, and as such, the judgment on consent is an unnecessary, duplicative measure taken by the parties." Opinion & Order, ECF No. 46 at 7. The parties are once again directed to strike this clause from their agreement. Once re-executed and filed, the Court will approve the settlement agreement. SO ORDERED. (Signed by Judge Paul A. Crotty on 3/01/2022) (ama)
