ROBERT B. KUGLER, District Judge.
Plaintiff is proceeding pro se with a civil rights complaint filed pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On December 4, 2013, the Court granted plaintiff's motion for default judgment against defendants John Elwell and James Stevens in the amount of $5,000. (See Dkt. No. 40.) The matter was subsequently closed.
Plaintiff then filed a motion to enforce the judgment. (See Dkt. No. 41.) Thereafter, defendants Elwell and Stevens entered an appearance in the case and filed a motion to vacate the default judgment with the consent of plaintiff.
It appears that on May 8, 2014, counsel for Elwell and Stevens met with plaintiff in an attempt to settle this case. The parties represent that they have now settled this case and jointly request that the Court vacate the previously entered default judgment. The Court will make it so. In light of this agreement of the parties to settle this matter and vacate the default judgment, the Court will deny plaintiff's motion to enforce the default judgment as unnecessary.
Therefore, IT IS on this
ORDERED that the Clerk shall reopen this case; and it is further
ORDERED that defendants' (with consent of plaintiff) motion to vacate the default judgment (Dkt. No. 44.) is granted; and it is further
ORDERED that the Order granting default judgment (Dkt. No. 40.) is vacated; and it is further
ORDERED that this matter is dismissed as settled; and it is further
ORDERED that plaintiff's motion to enforce the default judgment (Dkt. No. 41.) is denied as unnecessary; and it is further
ORDERED that the Clerk shall reclose this case; and it is further
ORDERED that the Clerk shall serve this Memorandum Order on plaintiff by regular U.S. Mail.
