Sean Combs has settled a lawsuit with a man who accused the rap mogul of punching him in the jaw.

Gerard Rechnitzer alleged the hip-hop hitmaker hit him at a post-Oscars party at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel in 2007 – after he objected to Combs’ attempts to woo his fiancee.

The rap and fashion mogul was scheduled to stand trial on assault charges in May, even though he didn’t face any criminal charges in relation to the incident because police found no cause for Rechnitzer’s complaint when they investigated the altercation.

However, on Friday, Combs’ attorney filed a legal document in Los Angeles to say the case has been settled. The terms of the settlement have not been disclosed.
