Comments: 
Case was originally filed in San Diego Superior Court. After negotiation, the Plaintiff agreed to dismiss the court action and enter into a private settlement.

* A non-contingent civil penalty is the civil penalty that must be paid pursuant to the settlement, regardless of future events or actions of the defendant. If a settlement includes a contingent penalty, the plaintiff should report the additional penalty amount when it becomes due.
