UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA TAMPA DIVISION

EDDIE MORENO,

Plaintiff,

v. Case No. 8:20-cv-3100-TPB-ASS

AIR TECH SERVICES OF PASCO, INC.,

Defendant. /

ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION This matter is before the Court on the report and recommendation of Amanda Arnold Sansone, United States Magistrate Judge, entered on June 8, 2021. (Doc. 27). Judge Sansone recommends that the “Joint Motion for Approval of Settlement” (Doc. 21) be granted, the settlement agreement be approved, the parties ordered to comply with its terms, and the case be dismissed with prejudice. Both parties and their respective counsel filed a notice indicating they have no objection to the report and recommendation. (Doc. 28) After conducting a careful and complete review of the findings and recommendations, a district judge may accept, reject, or modify the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation.

(b)(1); Camby v. Davis,

(4th Cir. 1983); Williams v. Wainwright,

(11th Cir. 1982). A district court must “make a de novo determination of those portions of the [report and recommendation] to which an objection is made.”

(b)(1)(C). When no objection is filed, a court reviews the report and recommendation for clear error. Macort v. Prem, Inc.,

(11th

Cir. 2006); Nettles v. Wainwright,

(5th Cir. 1982). Upon consideration of the record, including Judge Sansone’s report and recommendation, the Court adopts the report and recommendation. The Court agrees with Judge Sansone’s detailed and well-reasoned findings and conclusions, including that the settlement agreement constitutes a fair and reasonable compromise of the dispute. See Lynn’s Food Stores, Inc. v. United States,

, 1353 (11th Cir. 1982). Consequently, the motion to approve the settlement agreement is granted, and the settlement agreement is approved. Accordingly, it is ORDERED, ADJUDGED, and DECREED: 1. Judge Sansone’s report and recommendation (Doc. 27) is AFFIRMED and ADOPTED and INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE into this Order for all purposes, including appellate review.

2. The “Joint Motion for Approval of Settlement” (Doc. 21) is GRANTED. 3. The settlement agreement (Doc. 21-1) is ACCEPTED, ADOPTED and APPROVED by the Court and the parties are ORDERED to comply with its terms. 4. This action is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE. 5. The Clerk is directed to terminate any pending motions or deadlines and thereafter close this case. DONE and ORDERED in Chambers, in Tampa, Florida, this 9th day of June, 2021.
