Is a settlement agreement enforceable under Code of Civil Procedure section 664.6?

California, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Cooter v. A. Nat'l Golf Club, B245137 (Cal. App. 2015):

12. Cooter does not argue on appeal that the settlement agreement was enforceable under Code of Civil Procedure section 664.6. A written settlement agreement is enforceable under section 664.6 only if it is signed by the parties and not solely by their attorneys. (Levy v. Superior Court (1995) 10 Cal.4th 578, 586; J.B.B. Investment Partners, Ltd. v. Fair (2014) 232 Cal.App.4th 974, 984-985 (J.B.B.).) There is no settlement agreement signed by the parties here.
