At any time during the pendency of a case, the parties may submit a joint motion to dismiss the appeal if they have settled the case, and may file with such motion a copy of the settlement agreement. If the Judge has express authority, under statute, SBA regulation or SBA standard operating procedures, to review the contents of a settlement agreement for legality, the Judge may order the parties to file a copy of the settlement agreement. Otherwise, upon the filing of a joint motion to dismiss, the Judge will issue an order dismissing the case.
Settlement negotiations, and rejected settlement agreements, are not admissible into evidence. \[61 FR 2683, Jan. 29, 1996, as amended at 67 FR 47249, July 18, 2002\]
