Jackson v. Prairie County, Arkansas

Opinion

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS CENTRAL DIVISION CAYLA JACKSON, Individually and on Behalf of All Others Similarly Situated PLAINTIFF

V. No. 4:22-cv-93-DPM

PRAIRIE COUNTY, ARKANSAS DEFENDANT

ORDER Notices, Doc. 22 & 23, appreciated. The several issues noted by Judge Moody have been sorted in the various filings. Doc. 22-1 at 1, Doc. 18-3 & Doc. 18-4 at 12. The proposed settlement is fair, reasonable, and adequate. Lynn’s Food Stores, Inc. v. United States, 679 F.2d 1350, 1353 (11th Cir. 1982); see also Barbee v. Big River Steel, LLC, 927 F.3d 1024, 2027 (8th Cir. 2019); Melgar v. OK Foods, 902 F.3d 775, 779 (8th Cir. 2018). It reflects a good-faith compromise of the parties’ wage-related dispute. And the attorney’s fee was negotiated separately. The Court will dismiss the complaint with prejudice and retain jurisdiction for a time to enforce the settlement. So Ordered. NPYrgavtall D.P.
