LOS ANGELES — After sparring for more than a year, Mel Gibson and his ex-girlfriend have reached a financial and custody settlement of a dispute that spawned a criminal case and left the Oscar winner’s reputation damaged.
Los Angeles Superior Court officials said in a statement late Friday that Gibson and Russian musician Oksana Grigorieva had reached an agreement after days of negotiation. Terms and conditions of the settlement were not announced, but a hearing Wednesday will be held to discuss the financial terms.
Alan Nierob, Gibson’s spokesman, confirmed the settlement and said the actor-director appreciated the judge’s help in mediating the case. Grigorieva’s spokesman declined to comment. The Associated Press
