Opinion
Case No. 6:05-cv-1384-Orl-31KRS.
March 1, 2006
ORDER
Upon consideration of the Joint Motion for Approval of Settlement and Motion to Dismiss with Prejudice (Doc. 20), it is
ORDERED that the Motion is GRANTED, in part. The Court finds that the Settlement Agreement is a fair and reasonable compromise of a legitimate dispute between parties represented by competent counsel. Therefore, the Settlement Agreement is approved with the exception of that portion contained in the article Seventh, which prohibits disclosure of the Agreement. The Settlement Agreement itself is filed of record and is not confidential. That portion of the Agreement pertaining to confidentiality thereof is therefore severed, and the balance of the Agreement shall remain viable as per article Ninth. The case is dismissed with prejudice and the Clerk is directed to close the file.
DONE and ORDERED.
