Associated Press Paris Hilton Settles $10M Defamation Lawsuit With Zeta Graff
LOS ANGELES (August 22, 2007) � It appears Paris Hilton's pockets are about to get a whole lot lighter.
Paris has settled her defamation lawsuit with fellow socialite Zeta Graff, according to the Santa Monica County court clerk, although the official paperwork has yet to reach Superior Court.
Lawyers for both parties were in a Santa Monica court this morning, and ended up settling the case.
And while the court calendar indicated jury selection process is still scheduled to begin on Monday, that presumably will no longer be needed.
Details of the settlement are unknown at this time.
The attorneys for Paris and Zeta released the following joint statement to Access Hollywood:
"Zeta Graff and Paris Hilton are pleased to announce the amicable resolution of the lawsuit between them. Both parties are glad that the matter could be resolved without the time and expense of a trial. The resolution is confidential and no one will comment further."
