      Ah, I recalled he didn’t win, I suppose I should’ve assumed it was settled, that’s usually how that goes down.

      Personally I think he should’ve lost and had to pay CDPR’s legal costs, the whole thing was absurd. He admits he made a stupid mistake but wants money out of them anyways despite having been an arrogant shithead to start with.

        I mean he had a very weak case iirc but it’s very unsatisfying to hear he still got a settlement. Makes sense tho, lawsuits are not worth it 95% of the time.
