Follow up on Larry Bird Suit

I wrote about this lawsuit here and it is settled:

Bird settles French Lick lawsuit
Larry Bird has settled a lawsuit against a bed-and-breakfast that operates from his boyhood home in the southern Indiana town of French Lick.

Attorneys for the basketball icon and Legend of French Lick LLC would not discuss the settlement, saying the parties had signed a confidentiality agreement.

The Web site of Legend of French Lick Resort carries a disclaimer saying the resort is "not affiliated with, or endorsed or sponsored by Larry Bird or the Larry Joe Bird Revocable Living Trust." It was not immediately clear whether the disclaimer was used prior to the settlement, which was closed yesterday.
