Netflix has settled a potentially precedent-setting lawsuit from Mo'Nique in a case that could have found that the streamer retaliated against the comedian by refusing to engage in good faith negotiations after being accused of discrimination for opening with a low-ball offer.
Both sides on Tuesday moved to dismiss the suit, according to a court filing. Terms of the deal weren't disclosed.
Netflix in 2017 started to court Mo'Nique for a comedy special during a time it was aggressively ramping-up its stand-up content, the complaint says. The negotiations, however, didn't get far because the Oscar-winning actress did not agree to what she considered a low opening offer of $500,000 for a one-hour show that Netflix would have complete control over, including owning the copyright and retaining all audio-only rights to the special. She protested the offer as discriminatory, leading to Netflix walking away from negotiations.

Normally these types of lawsuits should be private but since she did it for "black women" and not just herself, she should disclose..

I know it says they reached a settlement
but does that always mean money was paid out? Because it's looking like they just parted ways and dismissed the case. Doesn't even say they "gave an undisclosed sum"

Probably to just get this over with, no shade. Costs them nothing to get her to be quiet. After what she said about DL hughleys daughter being molested, I'm through with her.

Assuming they just "parted ways" with no money involved is just as good as an assumption that she was paid .
So If ur more comfortable or happy thinking she wasn't paid then I'd say go with that til we get more details
Ndndndn 🤷🏾♂️ cuz as of now, "Terms of the deal were not disclosed."
Maybe it's again just because it never said there was anything paid out. Nothing to do with happy or comfortable.
I just called the Netflix customer service number and they told me they did not pay out for this..
