Justin Bieber settles photographer assault lawsuit

March 16 (Reuters) - A lawsuit over Justin Bieber's 2012
run-in with a photographer in California while on a date with
Selena Gomez has been settled out of court, the photographer's
attorney said on Wednesday.
Jose Osmin Hernandez Duran had sued the Canadian pop star
for assault and emotional distress, saying Bieber kicked and
punched him outside a shopping center on the outskirts of Los
Angeles.
A trial had been scheduled to start in Los Angeles on
Wednesday but Duran's attorney, Steven Madison, said the case
had been resolved but that the terms were confidential.
Duran said in his lawsuit that he was taking photos of
Bieber driving out of a car parking space when the singer got
out, kicked him and delivered a punch before driving off.
Bieber, now 22, had a string of run-ins with photographers
and the law between 2012-2014 as he evolved from a baby-faced
heartthrob who found fame at age 13 to a young man. He and Gomez
split in 2014 after a much publicized on-and-off relationship.
