Vinson v. Hot Shots - El Dorado
Trial Court Opinion
IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT WESTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS EL DORADO DIVISON
VANESSA VINSON & MILLICENT TURNER, individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated PLAINTIFFS
v. Case No. 1:22-cv-01057
HOT SHOTS – EL DORADO; MAHENDRA ENTERPRISES, LLC; & HARVINDER DOD DEFENDANTS
ORDER Before the Court is the parties’ Joint Stipulation of Dismissal. ECF No. 24. The parties jointly stipulate to dismissal of this matter with prejudice. An action may be dismissed by “a stipulation of dismissal signed by all parties who have appeared.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A)(ii). “Caselaw concerning stipulated dismissals under Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(ii) is clear that the entry of such a stipulation of dismissal is effective automatically and does not require judicial approval.” Gardiner v. A.H. Robins Co.,
747 F.2d 1180, 1189(8th Cir. 1984). Thus, all claims were effectively dismissed when the parties filed the instant stipulation. However, this order issues for the purpose of maintaining the Court’s docket. This case is hereby DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE. If any party desires that the terms of any settlement be a part of the record therein, those terms should be reduced to writing and filed with the Court within thirty (30) days of the entry of this judgment. The Court retains jurisdiction to vacate this order upon cause shown that any such settlement has not been completed and further litigation is necessary. IT IS SO ORDERED, this 17th day of November, 2023.
