STIPULATION FOR ENTRY OF FINAL JUDGMENT PURSUANT TO RULE 54(B)

J. PAUL OETKEN, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED by and between Defendant City of New York and Plaintiffs Annette Richardson, Deborah Bowman, Debra Poe, Dino Riojas, Stephanie Thomas, Jon Watson, and Erica Richardson (“Plaintiffs”), as represented below that, pursuant to Rule 54(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, that the Court may direct entry of a final judgment as to each of those seven Plaintiffs pursuant to Rule 54(b). The final judgment is being entered pursuant to the terms of a settlement negotiated between the seven Plaintiffs and the City.

Final judgment is not being entered as to Plaintiff Brenda McKiver, who passed away in 2021, and her estate is not a party to this Stipulation. The Court hereby determines that there is no just reason for delay in entering final judgment as to the seven Plaintiffs identified above. A daughter of Ms. McKiver states that she has applied for but not yet received Letters Testamentary. Until the Letters Testamentary are received, nobody is authorized to negotiate a settlement for the McKiver estate..
