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

ROBERT JEFFREY,

Plaintiff, CIVIL ACTION NO.: 4:23-cv-241

v.

GENESIS FS CARD SERVICES, INC.,

Defendant.

O RDER On November 21, 2023, counsel for Plaintiff and counsel for Defendant advised the Court that the parties have reached a settlement of this matter and that they intend to file a joint stipulation of dismissal once the settlement is completed. (Doc. 13.) 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 27th day of November, 2023.
