Prince Andrew’s legal team to receive document they believe will end civil lawsuit

Prince Andrew (PA)

A US judge has agreed for Prince Andrew’s lawyers to receive a copy of a 2009 settlement they believe will nullify the civil sexual assault case against the royal.

Andrew B Brettler, who represents Andrew, had argued at a previous hearing Virginia Giuffre – who is suing the Queen’s son for alleged sexual assault – had entered into a “settlement agreement” that would end her current lawsuit.
