DOC #: UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT DATE FILED: 10/17 /2022 SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK RICARDO RODRIGUEZ, Plaintiff, -against- 1:21-cv-6542-MKV 2324 MORRIS AVENUE REALTY LLC, 108 FIELD PLACE ORDER REALTY LLC, REALM REALTY MANAGEMENT, LLC, JOHN LAROCCA and GUSTAVO MORAN, Defendants. MARY KAY VYSKOCIL, United States District Judge: The Parties have informed the Court that they have reached an agreement to settle this case [ECF No. 21] and have filed copies of the proposed settlement agreement and documentation supporting the fairness of the settlement. [ECF Nos. 21-1-3]. The Court has reviewed these documents for fairness in accordance with the Fair Labor Standards Act and Second Circuit law. See Cheeks v. Freeport Pancake House,

(2d Cir. 2015). Considering the totality of the circumstances, the Court finds that the settlement is fair and reasonable and is the product of arm’s length negotiations by parties represented by experienced counsel after mediation with a retired magistrate judge. It should be noted, however, that the Court is not in this endorsement opining specifically on the reasonableness of the rates charged by the attorney representing Plaintiff. Accordingly, the settlement is approved, and the Court ORDERS that the case be dismissed with prejudice. The Clerk of Court is respectfully requested to terminate all pending motions, adjourn any remaining dates, and close this case.
