Major League Baseball Players Association agrees deal with FanDuel

After just two months, the lawsuit against FanDuel for allegedly using player names and likenesses without permission was settled. It was filed with the New York State court. According to Reuters, FanDuel and the Major League Baseball Players Association agreed to dismiss the lawsuit and sign a confidential licensing agreement.

The two parties reached a prejudiced settlement in the lawsuit. This implies that FanDuel and the Major League Baseball Players Association would not be able to resubmit the legal challenge to a court. The fact that each party to the lawsuit will be liable for paying their own legal fees and costs is further highlighted by the decision to dismiss the case with prejudice.
