Joint Motion states that the parties “have reached a confidential settlement of their disputes” and have 
agreed to seek dismissal with prejudice of the “FCC complaints,” as well as complaints in related state 
court litigation.3
4. We are satisfied that dismissing the captioned proceedings with prejudice will serve the 
public interest by promoting the private resolution of disputes and by eliminating the need for further 
litigation and the expenditure of further time and resources of the parties and this Commission.
5. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to sections 1, 4(i), 4(j), and 224 of the 
Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. §§ 151, 154(i), 154(j), and 224, and the authority 
delegated in section 0.111 and 0.311 of the Commission’s rules, 47 C.F.R. §§ 0.111 and 0.311, that the 
Joint Motion IS GRANTED, that the proceedings ARE DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE, and that the 
proceedings ARE TERMINATED.
