On October 13, 2016, the court issued an order granting final approval of the settlement in

the employer’s share of payroll taxes, and Defendant arranged for 

payment based on that estimate, (see Declaration of Keith A. 

Jacoby, dated October 24, 2016 (“Jacoby Decl.”) at Para 2 and 

Exhibit “A”) 

WHEREAS on October 21, 2016, Rust Consulting revised that 

estimate and requires over $96,000 additional dollars in employee 

taxes to be paid, (see Jacoby Decl. at Para. 3 and Exh. “B”)

WHEREAS FedEx Freight now needs additional time to cancel the 

pending wire transfer, and reset a new wire transfer in the corrected 

amount; and 

WHEREAS FedEx Freight needs additional time to consult with 

counsel to ensure that the amount indicated by Rust Consulting is, 

in fact, the correct amount. 

THE PARTIES THEREFORE Stipulate and agree, subject to Court 

approval, that, good cause appearing, the Order granting final 

approval of this settlement is hereby modified such that the funding 

of the aforementioned settlement must now occur on or before 

November 9, 2016.

(Doc. No. 85.) 

The court has reviewed the parties’ joint stipulation and finds good cause to grant the 

requested modification of the prior order. Accordingly,

1) The court grants the relief sought by the joint stipulation (Doc. No. 85) and will reset

the time to fund the settlement; and

2) The order granting final approval of this settlement (Doc. No. 83) is modified so that 

the funding of the settlement must now occur on or before November 9, 2016.
