ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION Before the Court is the parties’ proposed Agreed Final Judgment, (Dkt. No. 30), and the Report and Recommendation of the United States Magistrate Judge, (Dkt. No. 31), both pertaining to the settlement of the claims brought on behalf of minor Plaintiffs A.G. and K.G. In his report and recommendation, Magistrate Judge dos Santos recommends that the Court approve the proposed settlement pertaining to minor Plaintiffs A.G. and K.G. (Id. at 1). All parties, including the Guardian ad Litem representing the minor Plaintiffs, waived objections to the Report and Recommendation. (Id. at 4).

Accordingly, the parties’ Agreed Final Judgment, (Dkt. No. 30), is APPROVED. A final judgment will be entered contemporaneously with this Order. It is so ORDERED. SIGNED on April 23, 2025. 4 A.
