Notable Quotes 3
"[E]xcept as provided in Rule 41(a)(1) [which describes voluntary dismissals made either before the defendant files a responsive pleading or with consent of all parties], an action may be dismissed at the plaintiff's request only by court order, on terms that the court considers proper."
"The plaintiff and the Epstein Estate shall each bear their own attorney's fees and costs of suit. Nothing herein shall be construed to preclude Ms. Maxwell from seeking fees or costs related to this matter from the Epstein Estate and from the plaintiff;"
"Each party's interest can be protected by requiring that the unredacted copy of the release be provided to Ms. Maxwell, but that it not be disclosed for any purpose without the prior approval of this Court. This will assure that the unredacted copy of the plaintiff's release is used only for a proper purpose."
