The parties sought approval of a settlement involving a defendant under disability.
The plaintiff had commenced an action seeking a declaration of constructive trust over a property and resisting eviction.
Following a related proceeding, the plaintiff agreed to provide vacant possession and abandon his claims, with this action to be dismissed without costs.
The court found the settlement to be fair, reasonable, and in the best interests of the party under disability, as it avoided litigation risks and unrecoverable costs.
