Rapper Nelly Settles Sexual Assault Lawsuit with Seattle Area Woman

The celebrity-gossip news website TMZ reported Thursday that an unidentified lawyer for Nelly contended no money had exchanged hands as part of the case’s dismissal.

Greene’s lawyer disputed that Thursday. “My client is not making any comment,” Seattle attorney Karen Koehler said. “She’s not able to defend herself, but if someone is going to lie, I think that is inappropriate.”

Koehler said she couldn’t comment specifically on the case, but said the comment attributed to the opposing attorney was false and potentially defamatory toward Greene.
