SDNY COURTHOUSE, July 8 – Albert Lopez sued Vanguard Dermatology under the "Fair Labors Standards Act" [sic] in 2018.
When the case came up for a proceeding to review the fairness of settlement on July 8, 2020, Inner City Press covered it.
U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge John G. Koeltl during the proceeding questioned the lack of "lodestar" in the filing. Lawyers apologized and offered to file it under seal.
And hours later, an order went online: "Order granting Motion to Approve Settlement. The parties may submit the settlement agreement and settlement letter under seal and provide a redacted copy in the public record."
Why redacted?
The case is Lopez v. Vanguard Dermatology, 18-cv-4207 (Koeltl)
