How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • affirming district court’s denial of motion to vacate where, among other reasons, “liability was ‘tried long ago in a complex and exhausting effort by all parties and the judgment on liability was appealed from and affirmed”
  • “The considerations a court looks at in approving a settlement are entirely different than whether or not there was an agreement at all.”
  • “[T]he public’s confidence in the judicial process is less likely to be undermined when its result is adhered to in repose, and would be more likely to be undermined if the law were to countenance a sundering of the result six and one-half years later on grounds other than the merits.”
