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

STEFFANY MILTON,

Plaintiff, CIVIL ACTION NO.: 4:23-cv-128

v.

DENTAL SUPPORT SERVICES OF COASTAL GEORGIA, LLC,

Defendant.

O RDE R On July 23, 2023, counsel for both parties advised the Court that the parties have reached a settlement of this matter and that they are working to finalize the formal settlement documents and intend to file a joint stipulation of dismissal thereafter. (Doc. 8.) Accordingly, the Court DIRECTS the Clerk of Court to ADMINISTRATIVELY CLOSE this action. See Heape v. Flanagan, No. 6:07-CV-12,

(S.D. Ga. June 9, 2008). Within forty-five (45) 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 forty-five (45) days, the Court will sua sponte dismiss the case with prejudice. Kokkonen v. Guardian Life Ins. Co. of Am.,

(1994). SO ORDERED, this Ist day of August, 2023.
