This matter came before the undersigned on Plaintiff’s Motion to Dismiss its claims in
this action.
It appearing that Plaintiffs have entered into a compromise settlement of the claim
asserted by Steven D. Newkirk, and Plaintiffs are informed and believe that the other passengers
and crew aboard the vessel CAROLINIAN as of the casualty giving rise to this action either
sustained no injuries or else their injuries were of so minor a nature as to make a consensus of
claims unnecessary, the Court finds that Plaintiffs’ motion should be GRANTED.
The Complaint in this action is therefore DISMSSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
This the 25th day of January, 2012.
