OPINION
United States District Court Middle District of Florida Jacksonville Division,

ORDER
Judge: MARCIA MORALES HOWARD United States District Judge

THIS CAUSE is before the Court on the parties' Joint Motion for Entry of Final Judgment of Permanent Injunction by Consent (Doc. No. 14; Joint Motion), filed on January 6, 2010. Plaintiff filed a three-count complaint against Defendant seeking injunctive relief. See Joint Motion at 1. The parties jointly request that the Court enter a Final Judgment of Permanent Injunction. See id. Defendant waives the entry of findings of fact and conclusions of law under Rule 52 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and 26 U.S.C. §§ 7402, 7407, and 7408. See id. at 2. Defendant waives any right she may have to appeal from the Final Judgment of Permanent Injunction. See id. Defendant states that she enters into the Joint Motion requesting the Final Judgment of Permanent Injunction voluntarily. See id. Defendant acknowledges that entry of the Final Judgment of Permanent Injunction neither precludes the Internal Revenue Service from assessing taxes, interest, or penalties against her for asserted violations of the Internal Revenue Code, nor precludes Defendant from contesting such taxes, interest, or penalties. See id. Defendant agrees that this Court shall retain jurisdiction over her for the purpose of implementing and enforcing the Final Judgment of Permanent Injunction. See id. Furthermore, Defendant admits and this Court independently finds that the Court has jurisdiction over Defendant and over the subject matter of this action. See id. In accordance with the agreements reflected in the Joint Motion, Defendant consents to the entry, without further notice, of the Final Judgment of Permanent Injunction. See id.

The Court having considered the Joint Motion,

IT IS ORDERED AND ADJUDGED THAT:
