Disposition notice

On November 3, 2026, the United States District Court for the Central District of California entered an order dismissing the action without prejudice and without costs after counsel advised the court that the matter had been settled. The court retained full jurisdiction over the action for 30 days to allow any party to move to reopen the case upon good cause shown if the settlement is not consummated. Failure to seek to reopen or extend the deadline constitutes consent to dismissal without prejudice. The order cites Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b) and Link v. Wabash R.R. Co., 370 U.S. 626 (1962). The order is signed by United States District Judge Fernando M. Olguin.
