THE SETTLEMENT HEARING Sample Clauses

The Settlement Hearing clause outlines the procedures and requirements for a formal court session to review and approve a proposed settlement agreement in a legal case. Typically, this clause specifies when and where the hearing will take place, who must attend, and what documentation or evidence must be presented to the court.
