Yasser Serulle Ferdinand had sued Equifax Information Services LLC and other defendants in what appears to be a consumer credit dispute, though the underlying facts of the case were not detailed in the dismissal order.
U.S. District Judge Georgette Castner granted the dismissal "without costs and without prejudice" but included safeguards for both parties. The judge retained jurisdiction "to the extent necessary to enforce the terms and conditions of any settlement entered into between the parties," and gave parties 60 days to reopen the case if the settlement falls through.
The case was filed in 2025 and reached settlement after proceeding through discovery and motion practice for over a year.
The dismissal leaves other defendants still in the case, suggesting Ferdinand's claims against additional parties remain active. The order's retention of jurisdiction signals the court's intent to ensure the Equifax settlement is fully performed.
