UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JAGJEEVAN K. DHALIWAL, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

NIRMAL SINGH, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:13-cv-00484-SKO

ORDER REQUIRING PARTIES TO FILE 

NOTICED MOTION

On March 15, 2016, the Court conducted an informal conference regarding a dispute of 

the settlement reached in this action. During the conference, the parties executed the settlement 

agreement. Due to the history of the parties in this action and the possibility of future issues with 

the settlement agreement, the Court had the parties file the settlement agreement under seal. On 

March 15, 2016, the settlement agreement was filed under seal; and on March 23, 2016, the 

parties filed a stipulation to dismiss the action with prejudice. On March 24, 2016, Judge Oberto 

signed an order dismissing the action and retaining jurisdiction over the settlement of the action. 

The matter was closed. 

On July 12, 2016, the undersigned’s courtroom deputy received an e-mail from the 

plaintiffs in this action indicating that the defendants have filed a new state court action based on 

the released claims. Plaintiffs are seeking an order allowing release the settlement agreement for 

use in the state court action.
