  Barrios v. California Interscholastic Federation
The CIF argued that the district court should vacate the judgment because otherwise Barrios would be given the opportunity to execute a judgment not contemplated by any of the parties during the settlement negotiations.
In his opposition to the CIF' s motion, Barrios conceded that the settlement did not address whether a judgment or stipulation for dismissal would be filed, but argued that a judgment according to the terms of the settlement was necessary because the CIF still had not paid Barrios the $10,000 in compensatory damages.
The CIF argues that the district court did not have jurisdiction over the state law claims because Barrios did not file an administrative claim, which it contends is a prerequisite to filing his complaint in federal court.
