Questão jurídica principal
Whether the appeal should be struck out because the parties settled the dispute before the Federal Supreme Court.
Decisão extraída
The settlement ended the dispute and the appeal had to be struck out by the single judge.
Fundamentação extraída
Under Art. 71 BGG in conjunction with Art. 73 para. 1 BZP, a settlement declared before the judge terminates the litigation; the appeal is therefore removed from the docket under Art. 32 para. 2 BGG.
