Defendants.

J. PAUL OETKEN, District Judge:
On May 12, 2020, Plaintiffs filed a motion for this Court to enter judgment on behalf of
the Plaintiffs in the amount owed to them under the settlement agreement with Defendants.
(Dkt. No. 70.) The settlement agreement required Defendants to pay $35,000 within thirty days
of this Court’s approval of the settlement. (Dkt. No. 71 ¶ 3.) This Court approved the settlement
on October 24, 2019. (Dkt. No. 69.) Accordingly, Defendants were required to make payment
to Plaintiffs on or before November 23, 2019. No payment has been made to Plaintiffs (Dkt. No.
71 ¶ 6), and Defendants have failed to respond to Plaintiffs’ motion.
Accordingly, Plaintiffs’ motion for judgment is GRANTED. The Clerk of Court is
directed to close the motion at Docket Number 70, and enter judgment in favor of Plaintiffs in
the amount of $35,000 plus prejudgment interest in the amount of 9 percent per annum from
November 23, 2019, through the date of judgment.
SO ORDERED.
Dated: June 12, 2020
New York, New York
