The Commission vote approving the stipulated final order was 2-1, with Acting Chairman Ohlhausen dissenting and issuing a statement. Commissioner McSweeny also issued a statement. On March 31, 2017, the Commission filed a stipulation requesting entry of the order in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia.

NOTE: Stipulated final orders have the force of law when approved and signed by the District Court judge. Then-Commissioner (and former Chairwoman) Edith Ramirez registered a vote in the affirmative for the motion to approve this settlement before she left the Commission.
