What to keep in mind
Address dismissals, price, equity transfers, lifting injunctions, confidentiality, guarantees and how court filings align with performance.
Overbroad releases can extinguish claims the parties did not intend to settle.
Distinctions often confused
Settling private claims does not always automatically extinguish a corporate liability action.
Frequently asked questions
Can parties settle while injunctions remain in force?
Yes, but judicial modification and performance should be coordinated.
Must every settlement be judicially approved?
Not necessarily; the answer depends on its nature and intended procedural effects.
