In this Fair Labor Standards Act case, the parties moved for approval of their settlement agreement (Doc. 36-1 (“Agreement")). (Doc. 36 (“Motion").) On referral, U.S. Magistrate Judge Robert M. Norway entered a Report and Recommendation stating that the Court should grant the Motion. (Doc. 37 ("R&R").) The parties did not object, so the Court examines the R&R for clear error only. See Macort v. Prem, Inc., 208 F. App'x 781, 784 (11th Cir. 2006). Finding none, the R&R is due to be adopted in its entirety.
