ALBERTO DE LA CRUZ PEREZ, et al., Plaintiffs, v. MILEA TRUCK SALES CORP., et al., Defendants.
ORDER
ROBERT W. LEHRBURGER, United States Magistrate Judge.
The parties have consented to my jurisdiction for purposes of approving the settlement agreement in this action. The Court has reviewed the agreement and accompanying papers. The agreement contains a non-disparagement clause that is not mutual and which permits truthful disparaging statements only in certain limited circumstances (such as legal proceedings). By July 15, 2021, the parties shall jointly file either (1) a letter of no more than three pages with authority supporting the propriety of the proposed non-disparagement provision in a wage-and-hour case such as this one, or (2) a revised agreement or amendment to the agreement that modifies the nondisparagement clause (a) to be mutual and/or (b) to allow for truthful statements about the case and underlying facts without limitation to particular circumstances.
SO ORDERED.
