Case No. 6:06-cv-882-Orl-22UAM.
June 4, 2007
ORDER
This cause is before the Court on Amended Motion to Approve Settlement (Doc. No. 37) filed on April 12, 2007.
The United States Magistrate Judge has submitted a report recommending that the Motion be granted in part.
After an independent de novo review of the record in this matter, and noting that no objections were timely filed, the Court agrees entirely with the findings of fact and conclusions of law in the Report and Recommendations.
Therefore, it is ORDERED as follows:
1. The Report and Recommendation filed May 15, 2007 (Doc. No. 44) is ADOPTED and CONFIRMED and made a part of this Order.
2. The Amended Motion to Approve Settlement (Doc. No. 37) is granted in part. The Court finds the payment by Defendant of $20,000.00 is a fair and reasonable settlement of a bona fide dispute. However, the Court finds a reasonable fee for Plaintiff's counsel is $4,300.00, and recoverable costs is $370.00.
3. This case is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
4. The Clerk is directed to CLOSE the file.
DONE and ORDERED in Chambers, in Orlando, Florida.
