Upon review of the file and consideration of the materials submitted in support 

thereof, including the Motion, the Declaration of Jason C. Evans, the Report of Next 

Friends, the Affidavit of Qianbin Wang aka Angela Wang, and the Affidavit of Nieyan 

Geng aka Norris Geng, and the opposition and/or non-opposition of any defendant 

provided to the Court prior to the making of this Order, the Court does hereby find and 

order as follows: 

Good cause appearing: 

1. The settlement of the claims of plaintiff J.G. against defendants, as 

compromised pursuant to the terms of the Full & Final Release of All Claims and the 

periodic payments scheduled (Exhibit B to the Declaration of Jason C. Evans) is approved. 

2. J.G. will receive [REDACTED] periodic payments of [REDACTED], which 

will be placed in a single premium-deferred annuity provided by Metropolitan Life 

Insurance Company, and which will be funded directly by the insurers of one or more 

defendants. The specific terms of the annuity, which are approved, are detailed in Exhibit B 

to the Declaration of Jason C. Evans. 

3. Should delays in effectuating the financial terms of this settlement cause a 

decrease in the future payout amounts to be received by J.G., no further pleading or order 

of this Court shall be necessary so long as the total payout to the minor is no less than 97% 

of the amounts set forth in the Minors’ Compromise and the Declaration of Jason C. Evans, 

all other variables (payout dates, purchase price of annuity) remaining the same. 

4. The Court approves case costs in the amount of $7,249.99 to be deducted from 

the gross settlement amount to be received by J.G. 

5. The Court approves attorneys’ fees in the amount of [REDACTED] to be 

deducted from the gross settlement amount to be received by J.G. 

6. The Court approves dismissal of all claims of J.G. against all defendants, with 

prejudice. Plaintiff’s counsel shall submit dismissal promptly after the annuities set forth in 

the settlement documents have been funded, and all other due consideration has been 

received by Plaintiff’s counsel.
