Dismissal with Prejudice as to entire action filed
Recently I settled a lawsuit I had against two parties. In our settlement one was to pay the agreed amount immediately, which he did, and the other was to pay me their agreed settlement amount on April 1, 2008. On the online case history the court has now shown the case as ''DISMISSAL WITH PREJUDICE AS TO ENTIRE ACTION FILED''. Is this correct in that the second party has not paid their share of the settlement amount?
Re: Dismissal with Prejudice as to entire action filed
Whether this is correct depends upon the terms of the settlement agreement. If it is wrong, apply to the court to vacate the order of dismissal pending completion of the condition. If it is correct, and the payment is not forthcoming, you will have to sue again, now on the settlement agreement.
