Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.
The Supreme Court correctly denied the plaintiff's motion to vacate the stipulation of settlement. An "open-court stipulation is an independent contract between the parties . . . and will be enforced according to its terms unless there is proof of fraud, duress, overreaching, or unconscionability" ( Jablonski v. Jablonski, 275 AD2d 692, 693; see McCoy v. Feinman, 99 NY2d 295, 302; Hallock v. State of New York, 64 NY2d 224, 230; Desantis v. Ariens Co., 17 AD3d 311; Shuler v. Dupree, 14 AD3d 548). "General contentions that a party felt pressured by the court are insufficient to establish such a claim" ( Shuler v. Dupree, supra at 549, citing Cavalli v. Cavalli, 226 AD2d 666, 667; Sontag v. Sontag, 114 AD2d 892, 893, 894).
