THIS CAUSE having come before the court on the “Joint Motion for Approval of 

Settlement and Dismissal of Lawsuit” (“Joint Motion”), heard on April 11, 2008, and pursuant to 

the Settlement Agreement reached between the parties, and upon the full record, it is ORDERED 

AND ADJUDGED as follows: 

1. Plaintiff filed this action seeking damages for alleged violations of the Fair Labor 

Standards Act of 1938, as amended, 29 U.S.C. § 201 et seq. (“FLSA”), individually and on 

behalf of those similarly situated, and California Labor Code claims, on or about June 21, 2007. 

2. The action has remained a single plaintiff action as no motion for collective action 

certification has been made or considered by the Court and since the Complaint was filed, no 

additional individuals have filed consents to join the lawsuit. After extensive investigation and 

discovery, the parties agree this case is not suitable for conditional certification.

3. The parties’ Joint Motion is GRANTED. Pursuant to the settlement reached by 

the parties, Plaintiff is receiving fair, adequate, and reasonable recovery as to his claims in this 

action. The Court approves the settlement reached by the parties as fair, adequate and 

reasonable. 

4. The Court further orders this case is DISMISSED with prejudice. The Court shall 

retain jurisdiction for a period of one hundred twenty (120) calendar days to enforce, if 

necessary, the terms of the Settlement Agreement entered into between the parties. The Clerk of 

the Court shall enter this case CLOSED at the expiration of said time period, or earlier if jointly 

notified in writing by the counsel for the parties. 

DONE AND ORDERED THIS ______ day of March, 2008. 

Dated:_____________________ _________________________________ 

 Honorable Maxine Chesney 

United States District Court Judge 

17th April

5. The hearing scheduled for April 25, 2008 is hereby VACATED.
