I predict the settlement amount will be confidential.
Something tells me that you are probably right on the money there. If the statements made in the suit are all true and can be proven, the Hogan's are much worse off if they allow this to go to court. A jury would lick their chops on a case like this.
I was really just waiting for this suit to come to the surface. Mom and Dad's divorce was just one part of the preparation for the inevitable. They know they are getting ready to be handed their asses and are preparing for the worst.
Too bad they didn't move quick enough. I would imagine that in a market like we have had, they would have been able to hide a sunstantial amount of cash if they had liquidated one of the two palaces they own.
You can be damn sure that there are a number of forensic accountants on the plantiff's side looking at every red cent in each estate right now.

This should be a wake-up call to anyone who talks about their street racing exploits on the internet and especially to those who post pictures or videos. That shit doesn't go away and a hardcore PI lawyer may be able to find it and link it to you. And if you think those comments are damaging now---in the criminal trial they would be devastating if admitted. I think Nick still has pending criminal charges stemming from this incident.
As for the other driver being named---I think that's only because he was driving Hulk's car. They don't give a shit about that pissant, what they want is another set of policy limits to go after. I'm not sure how it works in Florida, but th
