UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA
FORT MYERS DIVISION
BAMIDELE AIYEKUSIBE, MISCHELE
HIGGINSON, and SHANTAL BROWN-
WINN, individually and on behalf of all
others similarly situated,

Plaintiffs,

v. Case No. 2:18-cv-816-JLB-MRM

THE HERTZ CORPORATION and DTG
OPERATIONS, INC.,

Defendant.
/
ORDER
On June 10, 2020, the Court stayed this action (Doc. 174) because Defendants
jointly filed for bankruptcy relief in the matter of In re Hertz Corp., No. 20-11218
(MFW), (Bankr. D. Del.). The parties now file a stipulation of dismissal with
prejudice (Doc. 176) and state that they have reached a settlement in the
bankruptcy proceedings as part of a larger mediation process involving
representatives of multiple other classes. See Omnibus Motion to Approve Certain
Settlement Agreements, No. 20-11218 (MFW), (Bankr. D. Del. Mar. 26, 2021), ECF
3474; Order Approving Aiyekusibe Settlement, No. 20-11218 (MFW), (Bankr. D.
Del. Apr. 13, 2021), ECF 3862. The parties also represent that the bankruptcy
court will retain exclusive jurisdiction as to interpretation and implementation of
the settlement. Considering the parties’ representations, the Court does not believe
that any review of the settlement is necessary under Lynn's Food Stores, Inc. v.
United States, 679 F.2d 1350, 1352 (11th Cir. 1982). Accordingly, the parties’
stipulation is self-executing. Anago Franchising, Inc. v. Shaz, 677 F.3d 1272, 1278
(11th Cir. 2012). The Clerk of Court is DIRECTED to terminate any pending
deadlines and close the file.
ORDERED in Fort Myers, Florida, on May 11, 2021.
