Based on the matters presented,

IT IS ORDERED taking this matter under advisement.

10:29 a.m. Matter concludes.

ATTENTION SELF-REPRESENTED LITIGANTS: Unless an attorney files a notice
that he or she represents a party, the person(s) not represented by an attorney will act as his or
her own attorney. The law requires the Court to hold all persons representing themselves to
the same standard as a licensed attorney. Kelly v. NationsBanc Mortgage Corp., 199 Ariz.
284, 287 (App. 2001); Homecraft Corp. v. Fimbres, 119 Ariz. 299, 301 (App. 1978). Self-
represented litigants are encouraged to review and become familiar with the Arizona Rules of
Civil Procedure, paying particular attention to Rule 26. Please note that only a licensed attorney
may represent a corporation, LLC, or similar business entity in the Superior Court.
Ramada Inns v. Lane & Bird Advertising, 102 Ariz. 127, 426 P.2d 395 (1967).

Before the Judge can consider anything you send, you must show that you have given a
copy of your request:

1. To the Clerk of the Court. The Clerk of the Court is a separately elected official. It is
the Clerk’s job to keep an independent record of everything that happens at the Court.
The Court cannot act on a document that has not been made a part of that record; and

2. To every other party involved in the case. This allows all parties a fair chance to tell
the Judge what they think before the Judge makes a decision.

Because of that, if you want the Judge to consider something you send, you must file the
original document with the Clerk of the Superior Court, email a copy directly to this Division
using email address: [email protected], or deliver a paper copy to the Judge at the
courtroom address, and mail or deliver a copy to all opposing parties. In addition, on each
document, you must include a signed certificate that says whether you mailed, emailed, or hand-
delivered each copy, when you did so, and states the specific people and the specific addresses to
which you mailed, emailed, or hand-delivered each copy. If a party is represented by a lawyer,
you must send or deliver the copy to the lawyer, not to the party. All proposed Orders submitted
to this Division in hard copy form, and not electronically through eFile, must include copies of
the Order with self-addressed, stamped envelopes for all parties/counsel.

Do not mail or send papers for the Clerk or other parties to the Judge.

ORDER

The Court has reviewed and considered the following:

A. Defendant/Counterclaimant’s Motion to Withdraw Notice of Settlement, filed October
17, 2024;

B. Plaintiff’s Response to Motion to Withdraw Notice of Settlement and Motion to Enforce
Settlement, filed November 4, 2024; and

C. Defendant/Counterclaimant’s Reply in Support of Motion to Withdraw Settlement
Agreement and Motion to Oppose Enforcement of Revised Settlement, filed December
18, 2024.

SUPERIOR COURT OF ARIZONA
MARICOPA COUNTY

CV 2022-001790

01/27/2025

Docket Code 926
Form V000A
Page 2

The Court heard oral argument on January 24, 2025.

Defendant/Counterclaimant’s Motion to Withdraw Notice of Settlement was filed shortly
before her counsel withdrew as her counsel. It alleges that she “does not agree with the terms of
the final version of the settlement agreement” and denies settling the case on “any terms.” The
Motion further provides that Defendant, in fact, “did sign an earlier version of the settlement
agreement.”

Following her lawyers’ withdrawal, Defendant filed her Reply and appeared at oral
argument pro per. She cannot explain her lawyers’ repeated acceptance of the Mediator’s
Proposal. She also has no explanation for her attorneys’ negotiations regarding the final
agreement, and agreements accepted on her behalf to resolve the matter and dismiss this case.
Instead, Defendant alleges that she had no knowledge of the negotiations or agreements and did
not authorize her attorneys to make any agreements. She alleges that her instructions to her counsel
were disregarded or ignored. She notes that the agreement itself does not provide her with
“anything” and that she is worse off than she was when the litigation process began. Meanwhile,
Plaintiff plainly and reasonably relied on the statements, agreements, and commitments made by
counsel for Defendant on their client’s behalf.

A written agreement between parties, including agreements as stated between the attorneys,
is binding. Ariz. R. Civ. P. 80(a).

THE COURT FINDS as follows:

1. The parties participated in a mediation on March 18, 2024, with mediator Barry
Markson. The parties did not reach any agreements at the mediation and
Defendant/Counterclaimant expressly rejected all proposals from Plaintiff.

2. After the mediation concluded for the day, Mediator Markson circulated his Mediator’s
Proposal to all counsel. Consistent with Rule 80(a), the Mediator’s Proposal provided
that if accepted by both parties, the proposal would be “binding and enforceable,
regardless of whether the parties subsequently execute a more formal settlement
agreement.” The proposal further noted that the terms as described would be binding
and could be used as evidence to enforce it. Defendant’s exhibits indicate that her
lawyers sent her a copy of the proposal and advised her on its terms.

3. Counsel for Defendant informed the mediator that his client accepted the Mediator’s
Proposal. Plaintiff also accepted the proposal through counsel.

SUPERIOR COURT OF ARIZONA
MARICOPA COUNTY

CV 2022-001790

01/27/2025

Docket Code 926
Form V000A
Page 3

4. When the parties, through counsel, accepted the terms of the Mediator’s Proposal, the
parties had an enforceable and binding settlement.

5. The Parties filed a Notice of Settlement on March 25, 2024.

6. The Court extended deadline for submitting a stipulation of dismissal at the parties’
requests. On July 27, 2024, Counsel for Defendant represented to the Court that the
parties needed more time to finalize the settlement agreement as they were working on
“one final issue” that should be resolved within the next month.

7. The parties exchanged drafts of the settlement agreement through counsel. Plaintiff
received a signed copy of a draft agreement from Defendant. In her Reply and at oral
argument, Defendant alleged that she never signed this, or any other, agreement and
that her attorneys fraudulently misrepresented her engagement letter DocuSign as the
signature to the settlement agreement.

8. Plaintiff performed on the agreement, making a settlement payment to counsel for
Defendant. After making this payment, Plaintiff learned that Defendant was taking the
position that there was no settlement reached.

9. All arguments offered by Defendant/Counterclaimant for setting aside the settlement
relate to her strong disagreements with and allegations against her own attorneys. She
did not, and could not, rebut the fact that her attorneys expressly and timely accepted
the Mediator’s Proposal on her behalf.

10. Stated differently, the basic facts underlying the Rule 80(a) agreement are uncontested:
counsel for both parties received and accepted the terms of the Mediator’s Proposal on
behalf of their respective clients.

Good cause appearing,

IT IS ORDERED granting Plaintiff’s Motion to Enforce Settlement, filed November 4,
2024. The terms of the March 18, 2024, Mediator’s Proposal are binding on the parties and
dispositive of all matters in dispute.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED denying Plaintiff’s request for an award of attorneys’ fees
in connection with the enforcement of the settlement.

order entered under Rule 54(c), Ariz. R. Civ. P.

Defendant’s Motion to Vacate and Set Aside Minute Entry Filed 5/13/2025 Regarding Clarifying
Order from January 27, 2025, filed June 6, 2025.

IT IS ORDERED denying Defendant’s (second) Motion to Stay Proceedings, filed June
6, 2025. There is no case to stay as the case is closed. See January 28, 2025, Final Order and the
Court’s March 24, 2025, Order denying Plaintiff’s previous Motion to Stay.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED denying Defendant’s Motion to Vacate and Set Aside
Minute Entry Filed 5/13/2025 Regarding Clarifying Order from January 27, 2025, filed June 6,
2025. The May 13, 2025, Minute Entry merely corrected a clerical error from the May 8, 2025,
Minute Entry. Stated differently, there is no basis to set aside or clarify the Court’s clerical
error correction made on May 13, 2025. Likewise, there is no basis to set aside or clarify the
May 8, 2025, Minute Entry, which denied Defendant’s previous Motion to Amend Order.
