- Michael Cohen and the Trump Organization cut a deal to settle his lawsuit.
- The terms are confidential, the lawyers said in a Friday morning court hearing.
- The case, over unpaid legal bills, was supposed to go to trial next week.
The Trump Organization cut a deal with Michael Cohen to settle his $1.3 million lawsuit.
It's not clear how much money the Trump Organization paid to settle the case. The terms are confidential, lawyers for both parties said in a court hearing Friday morning.
"The parties reached agreement on confidential terms last night," Cohen's lawyer Hunter Winstead said at the hearing.
Cohen — Donald Trump's former "fixer" and personal lawyer and a former executive at the Trump Organization — sued the company in New York state court in 2019.
