A quick definition of consent order:

A consent order is an agreement made between all parties involved in a legal case, with the approval of a judge. It is not a judgment, but rather a settlement agreement that is written and submitted to the court. Once approved, it is binding and enforceable on both parties. Consent orders are often used in government regulation cases, such as antitrust, securities, and environmental law. If one party commits fraud or if both parties make an error, the consent order can be set aside by the court.

A more thorough explanation:

A consent order, also known as a consent decree, is a legal agreement made between two parties with the approval of a judge. It is not a judgment, but rather a settlement agreement that is approved by the court. Once approved, the agreement is binding and enforceable on both parties.

One example of a consent order is when a government agency sues a company for violating a law or regulation. If the company agrees to stop the illegal conduct, the government may agree not to pursue the case further. The court then approves and issues a consent order, which requires the company to comply with the terms of the agreement.

Another example is when two parties in a civil lawsuit reach a settlement agreement. They can submit the agreement to the court as a consent order, which makes the agreement legally binding and enforceable.

These examples illustrate how a consent order is a way for parties to resolve legal disputes without going to trial. It allows them to come to an agreement that is approved by the court and enforceable by law.

One manager came in sick wearing a mask, got roasted and stopped wearing it that day. The entire office has been cycling sickness for two weeks now. It may not be super effective but it may help in slowing the spread during meetings when we have to be so close
