Opinion

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS NORTHERN DIVISION

TREVOR WILLIAMS, Individually and on behalf of all others similarly situated PLAINTIFF

Vv. No. 3:23-cv-31-DPM

D&H CONTRACTING, INC. DEFENDANT

ORDER The joint status report, Doc. 23, is noted and appreciated. The joint motion, Doc. 21, is granted. The proposed settlement—as modified, Doc. 23 at 1—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 parties negotiated the attorney’s fees and costs separately. Barbee, 927 F.3d at 1027. Plus those fees related to all claims. The complaint will be dismissed with prejudice. So Ordered.
