The sex discrimination suit against Cozen O'Connor by a female partner who claimed she was ousted because of a political double standard has been quietly settled. Court records show that lawyers on both sides filed a stipulation of dismissal. Ordinarily, such court filings note that the case is being dismissed under Local Rule 41.1(b), indicating that the case has "settled." But the filing made no mention of the local rule, and the two lawyers who signed it said only that the case "has been resolved."
