A judge is dismissing a civil lawsuit filed against a
Black Eyed Peas manager who punched blogger Perez Hilton in a
nightclub last year.
Attorneys for Hilton and Peas' manager Liborio Molina announced
in court on Tuesday they had reached a settlement agreement.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge John S. Wiley agreed to
dismiss the case but retained jurisdiction in case the
settlement falls apart.
The terms were not discussed and Hilton's attorney, Joshua
Blum, declined comment after the hearing. Molina apologised
for punching Hilton last year in a Toronto nightclub as part
of an agreement to drop assault charges against the manager.
The scuffle happened after the openly gay blogger called
Black Eyed Peas' leader will.i.am a slur for homosexuals.
