Blake v. Nationstar Mortgage LLC

Trial Court Opinion

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF GEORGIA SAVANNAH DIVISION

BRYANT SCOTT BLAKE, Administrator of the Estate of Ruthie Mae Whipple Blake a/k/a Ruthie M. Whipple,

Plaintiff, CIVIL ACTION NO.: 4:22-cv-133

v.

NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE LLC d/b/a CHAMPION MORTGAGE COMPANY,

Defendant.

O RDER On July 1, 2022, the parties advised the Court that they had reached a settlement as to all claims in the above-captioned case and that they were working to finalize a formal settlement agreement and intended to file a stipulation of dismissal within sixty days. (Doc. 10.) Therefore, the Court DIRECTS the Clerk of Court to ADMINISTRATIVELY CLOSE this action. See Heape v. Flanagan, No. 6:07-CV-12,

2008 WL 2439736

(S.D. Ga. June 9, 2008). Within sixty (60) days of the date this Order is entered, the parties—if they wish—may present a dismissal judgment, pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41(a)(2), incorporating the terms of their settlement, so the Court may retain jurisdiction to enforce the agreement. In the alternative, the parties may simply file a joint stipulation of dismissal. If the parties fail to file a dismissal (or, if necessary, move to reopen the case) within sixty (60) days, the Court will sua sponte dismiss the case with prejudice. Kokkonen v. Guardian Life Ins. Co. of Am.,

511 U.S. 375, 381-82

(1994). SO ORDERED, this 11th day of July, 2022.
