State of New York v. Wolf et al

Filing 154

ORDER OF DISMISSAL: The Court having been advised at ECF No. 153 in 20- CV-1127, ECF No. 151 in 20-CV-1142, that all claims asserted therein have been settled in principle, it is ORDERED that the above-entitled actions be and are hereby DISMISSED and discontinued without costs, and without prejudice to the right to reopen the action within sixty days of the date of this Order if the settlement is not consummated. To be clear, any application to reopen must be filed by the aforementioned d eadline; any application to reopen filed thereafter may be denied solely on that basis. Further, requests to extend the deadline to reopen are unlikely to be granted. If the parties wish for the Court to retain jurisdiction for the purposes of enf orcing any settlement agreement, they must submit the settlement agreement to the Court by the deadline to reopen to be so ordered by the Court. Per Paragraph 4(B) of the Courts Individual Rules and Practices for Civil Cases, unless the Court orde rs otherwise, the Court will not retain jurisdiction to enforce a settlement agreement unless it is made part of the public record. Any pending motions are moot. All conferences are canceled. The Clerk of Court is directed to docket this order in 20-CV-1127 and 20-CV-1142 and close both cases. SO ORDERED.

without prejudice to the right to reopen the action within sixty days of the date of this Order if
the settlement is not consummated.
