Overview

• The suit filed in April by “Jane Doe” in Clark County, Nev., accused the Hall of Famer of multiple rapes, sexual assaults, battery and emotional distress during a two-year relationship.
• Attorney Tony Buzbee announced that after “protracted and respectful negotiations” both sides agreed to end the dispute permanently.
• Sharpe stepped away from his ESPN commentator role in April and has consistently denied all allegations, calling the claims a “shakedown.”
• The lawsuit sought $50 million in compensatory and punitive damages, but any payment under the settlement remains confidential.
• Nevada’s dismissal with prejudice bars the plaintiff from refiling the same claims, effectively closing this chapter of litigation.
