No. One person's testimony caused Romney's to rush to settle the lawsuit, after 18 months, immediately before it was supposed to go before a judge. Unfortunately for Romney's, they failed to get confidentiality agreements signed. The other parties refused.

The lawsuit was not dropped. The lawsuit wasn't dismissed. After 18 months, immediately before the lawsuit was to be heard in court, the lawsuit was settled out of court, at the request of the Romney's, in exchange for reimbursement of the sale price of the horse, Ann's name being taken off the papers legal, and no further action.

RE: "Payoff the filer," "in exchange for reimbursement of the sale price of the horse." Do you have any proof, or are you speculating? How do you know that there was a settlement "at the request of the Romneys?" How do you know that the filer didn't simply decide that she didn't have a good case against them? And IF they were "paying off" the filer, why wouldn't a confidentiality agreement have been a part of any settlement? More likely the absence of an agreement that the Romneys supposedly sought indicates that there was no payoff.
