The long-standing lawsuit between dick clark productions and the Hollywood Foreign Press Foundation was settled.

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association and dick clark productions have settled years-old litigation over television broadcast
rights to the Golden Globe Awards show, it was announced today.

The exact terms of the settlement were not disclosed.

NBC has the rights to the Golden Globes through 2018, under an agreement that was the focus of the 2010 lawsuit.

“We regret that the relationship between dick clark productions and the HFPA deteriorated to the point that litigation ensued, but our focus now is on the future,” according to a statement from dick clark productions.

The resolution of the suit came as both sides awaited a decision from the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, where the HFPA was seeking to overturn a 2012 lower court ruling in favor of dick clark productions.

“We also look forward to a successful and amicable relationship, ensuring that the Golden Globe Awards will remain Hollywood’s celebration of the year,” said HFPA President Theo Kingma.

A motion for dismissal was filed today with the 9th Circuit, with both sides agreeing to pay attorneys’ costs, according to the court docket.
