Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Pennsylvania
Out of court settlement
Federal civil action settled out of court with the courts approval. Part of the settlement, required that the Respondents reassign the plaintiff. The plaintiff was reassigned for a period of two years, afterwhich the respondents terminated the reassignment. None of the conditions that brought about the initial complaint has changed. Is this a violation of the settlement agreement, and if so what reprecussions are there.

Reassignment and settlement agreement
I think you need to fill in a few details. It appears that the reasons for the reassinment continue to persist.If so, the reassignment didn't work . . . it didn't solve anything.Why do I think that is not what yu are trying to tell us. I would need to know more before I could give you a reasonable answer. Give it a shot. Try again.
Enforcement of Settlement Agreement
A settlement agreement is a contract that can be enforced by a court if it is breached. If, as I assume, your agreement is in writing, it needs to be reviewed to see what it says about the length of the reassignment or reasons the reassignment can be terminated before your question about a remedy can be answered.
