Committee Notes

1992 Adoption. Many parties and attorneys litigate in various jurisdictions in the state, and the committee felt that a standard form for settlement would be much more convenient for the litigants and the court system.

1996 Amendment. This form has been modified to reflect recent changes in the statutory rate of interest calculated on final judgment amounts.
