Rev. Stat. 1987, ch. 127, par. 1014.1), which was settled, and by consent decree, reduced to judgment in the Sangamon County Circuit Court.\nThe parties have investigated this claim, and have knowledge of the facts and law applicable to the claim, and are desirous of settling this claim in the interest of peace and economy.\nBoth parties agree than an award of $10,200, pursuant to the circuit court order, is both fair and reasonable.\nClaimant agrees to accept, and Respondent agrees to pay Claimant $10,200, plus statutory interest, in full and final satisfaction of this claim and any other claims against Respondent arising from the events which gave rise to this claim.\nThe parties hereby agree to waive hearing, the taking of evidence, and the submission of briefs.\nThis Court is not bound by such an agreement, but it is also not desirous of creating or prolonging a controversy between parties who wish to settle and end their dispute. Where, as in the instant claim, the agreement appears to have been entered into with full knowledge of the facts and law and is for a just and reasonable amount, we have no reason to question or deny the suggested award.\nIt is hereby ordered that the Claimant be awarded $10,200.00 plus statutory interest, in full and final satisfaction of this claim.",
