`
`Order Entering Partial Stay upon Notice of Settlement
`Plaintiff Bell Northern Research, LLC (“BNR”) and Defendants Wingtech
`Technology Co., Ltd. and Wingtech International, Inc. (collectively, “Wingtech”)
`have settled this action. (ECF No. 198.) By July 28, 2023, the Plaintiff must
`file a stipulation of dismissal, under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure
`41(a)(1)(A)(ii), or a motion to dismiss, consistent with Rule 41(a)(2). The parties
`also move for a stay of all matters in this case between BNR and Wingtech until
`July 28, 2023, which the Court grants. (ECF No. 198.) The Court therefore
`stays all proceedings between BNR and Wingtech until July 28, 2023.
`If the Plaintiff files a stipulation of dismissal under Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(ii) and
`the parties wish to have this Court retain jurisdiction to enforce any settlement
`agreement, the stipulation of dismissal must include the following sentence:
`“The effectiveness of this stipulation of dismissal is conditioned upon the
`Court’s entry of an order retaining jurisdiction to enforce the terms of the
`parties’ settlement agreement.” This sentence is necessary because a
`stipulation of dismissal is otherwise self-executing and deprives the Court of
`jurisdiction to do anything further. See Anago Franchising, Inc. v. Shaz, LLC,
`677 F.3d 1272, 1280 (11th Cir. 2012).
`This case will remain open because the Plaintiff continues to assert
`claims against the remaining Defendants.
`Done and ordered in Miami, Florida, on July 14, 2023.
