ORDER1

Plaintiff brought this action under the Fair Labor Standards Act for unpaid overtime wage compensation, unpaid minimum wages, liquated damages, attorneys' fees, and costs. (Doc. #1). The parties now inform the Court that Plaintiff's claims against Defendant have been resolved in full without compromise. (Doc. #24). That said, there is no need for the Court to review and approve the settlement for fairness. See Lynn's Food Stores, Inc. v. U.S. Dep't of Labor, 679 F.2d 1350, 1352 (11th Cir. 1982). Moreover, Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 41 allows a plaintiff to dismiss an action without a court order by "a stipulation of dismissal signed by all parties who have appeared." Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(a)(1)(A)(ii). Here, the parties dismiss this case with prejudice under Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(ii) and provide the Court with a Joint Stipulation for Dismissal signed by all parties. (Doc. #24). This case is therefore dismissed with prejudice.

Accordingly, it is now

ORDERED:

1. This case is DISMISSED with prejudice.

2. The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to enter judgment accordingly, terminate all pending motions and deadlines, and close the file.

DONE and ORDERED.
