Interesting to see that. I wonder if they settled out of court for anything. Marc Schwartz is still a scumbag.

Doubt it. Bernie couldn't win the depo. He would be forced to answer questions he wouldn't want to answer under oath.

Her lawsuit was already dismissed I think.

there was a behind the scene settlement, no way bernie did not walk away with something

I'd guess money played a role too. Litigation is expensive.

 

[gilardino]

absolutely money did, make no mistake there was a settlement, trust me

I'd expect it in the court order dismissing the suit if there was a settlement.

 

[gilardino]

any way to access that?

 

[AZOrange]

No idea in ny. No idea what procedural move they made, but if I was stipulating and settling I'd like the court to recognize it so they could enforce it.

well said AZorange!

Which leads me to believe Bernie got zippo...

No. Way too early for a settlement. The lawsuit is the perfect example of a perjury trap for Bernie. He could say nothing ever happened under oath and than be tried for commitiing perjury. Even if he is telling the truth. That is why lawyers sometimes have their clients take a contempt charge rather than testify. Even if they are telling the truth.

You are undoubtedly correct.
Had their been a settlement the lawsuit would have been dismissed WITH prejudice.
That requirement would certainly be part of any deal.

But there is NO CHANCE that ESPN would EVER settle this on the known facts.
ZERO.
NONE.

Look for Laurie Fine's litigation to similarly disappear.
