Opinion
Case No. 6:07-cv-846-Orl-22KRS.
January 25, 2008
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
TO THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
Following a settlement conference conducted by the undersigned Magistrate Judge, the parties reached a settlement of this case. I find based on my personal participation in the settlement discussions that the amount of money to be paid to Plaintiff Alan Oviedo is a fair and reasonable compromise of disputed issues under the Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C. § 201 et seq. See Lynn's Food Stores, Inc. v. United States, 679 F.2d 1350, 1354 (11th Cir. 1982).
Accordingly, I recommend that the Court DISMISS this case with prejudice. The Court should not retain jurisdiction to enforce the terms of the settlement agreement, but the Court should permit any party to re-open the action within sixty (60) days, upon good cause shown, or to submit a stipulated form of final order or judgment.
Failure to file written objections to the proposed findings and recommendations contained in this report within ten (10) days from the date of its filing shall bar an aggrieved party from attacking the factual findings on appeal.
