I. Purpose of the Agreement
I.I Intent to Resolve Dispute Amicably
The Parties involved in the case wish to express their shared ambition to settle the ongoing legal dispute in a friendly and peaceful manner and to do so outside the formal and complex realm of court litigation. They acknowledge this mutual desire amid themselves, demonstrating a clear willingness to find resolution through peaceful negotiation rather than the confrontational approach often associated with court trials.
I.II Promotion of Efficiency and Cost Savings
The Parties involved in this matter acknowledge the possibility of encountering potential inefficiencies and financial burdens that are typically associated with prolonged and drawn-out litigation processes. In light of this, they have made the conscious decision to opt for an alternative course of action. This alternative is to reach a settlement agreement that is not only quick and efficient in resolving the matter at hand, but also serves as a more cost-effective solution, reducing unnecessary and potentially significant expenses that could accrue during a protracted litigation process.
II. Settlement Amount
II.I Negotiated Settlement Sum
When this Agreement is executed, the defendant or defendants involved in this case agree to remit a settlement sum, which amounts to 50,000 US dollars, to the plaintiff or plaintiffs.
