UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION
FOSTER G. NEWLIN,
Plaintiff, 	Case No. 24-cv-13250
Hon. Matthew F. Leitman
v.
PRESTIGE STAMPING, LLC,
Defendant.
__________________________________________________________________/
ORDER (1) ADOPTING RECOMMENDED DISPOSITION OF REPORT
AND RECOMMENDATION (ECF No. 27) AND (2) TERMINATING
DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO DISMISS (ECF No. 13) AS MOOT
In this action, pro se Plaintiff Foster G. Newlin brought certain employment
discrimination claims against his former employer, Defendant Prestige Stamping,
LLC. (See Compl., ECF No. 1.) On April 31, 2025, Prestige Stamping filed a motion
to dismiss Newlin’s Complaint. (See Mot., ECF No. 13.) After Prestige Stamping
filed that motion, Newlin filed an Amended Complaint. (See Am. Compl., ECF No.
28.) The filing of that Amended Complaint mooted Prestige Stamping’s motion to
dismiss. Accordingly, on August 11, 2025, the assigned Magistrate Judge issued a
report and recommendation in which she recommended that the Court terminate
Prestige Stamping’s motion to dismiss as moot (the “R&R”). (See R&R, ECF No.
27.) Finally, in November 2025, the parties informed the Court that they had reached
a settlement to their dispute. (See Dkt.)

The Court has reviewed the R&R and agrees with the Magistrate Judge that
based on the filing of the Amended Complaint, Prestige Stamping’s motion to
dismiss is now moot. 	Thus, for the reasons explained in the R&R, and for the
additional reason that the parties have now settled their dispute, the Court ADOPTS
the recommended disposition of the R&R and TERMINATES Prestige Stamping’s
motion to dismiss (ECF No. 13) AS MOOT.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
