First, the Court will not retain jurisdiction to enforce the terms of the Settlement Agreement between the Parties unless and until the Parties submit the Settlement Agreement to the Court for review. Second, unless the Parties do so, the dismissal of this matter is effective upon the filing of a joint stipulation of dismissal ( i.e. , no further action is required by the Court). In light of the foregoing, on or before July 15, 2022 , the Parties shall submit their Settlement Agreement for review, along with the appropriate motion and proposed order, if they intend for the Court to retain jurisdiction. Otherwise, the Court will consider this matter dismissed. No further extensions will be granted . Signed by Judge Kathleen M. Williams on 7/13/2022. (sgm)
