A strange lawsuit that saw Yelp suing a small-time bankruptcy lawyer in San Diego, California over accusations of fraudulent online reviews has resulted in a settlement—but neither party is talking details.

On Friday, a superior court judge in San Diego approved the case’s dismissal with prejudice—meaning that it cannot be filed again—which had been first brought in May 2015.

“This case has been completely resolved to the mutual satisfaction of the parties,” Christopher Beal, a Yelp spokesman, told Ars. He declined to elaborate.

Julian McMillan, the attorney, simply told Ars on Thursday that “it settled.”

Back in August 2013, Yelp sued McMillan—the second such case it had ever brought alleging false Yelp reviews. The lawsuit, initially filed in San Francisco, alleges breach of contract, intentional interference with contract, unfair competition, and false advertising.

Specifically, Yelp believes that McMillan orchestrated fake reviews on the Yelp page for his bankruptcy law business—an accusation he emphatically denied.

As Ars reported in 2013, Yelp v. McMillan was weird and complicated. It seems strange that Yelp would choose to suddenly focus on a small target when presumably fake Yelp reviews are happening on a daily basis across its site.

The San Diego-based attorney had hired Yelp to provide advertising services in 2012 after receiving a cold call from an ad sales representative, but he sued Yelp in small claims court, saying that the terms of that contract were not fulfilled. As he tells it, Yelp sued him essentially as a way to be vindictive.

For some time now, Yelp has been publicly accused of extortion—asking for money from businesses that are automatically listed on the site in exchange for preferred placement on the site. There are also accusations of abruptly vanishing positive reviews and suddenly appearing negative reviews.

However, in September 2014, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco dismissed two cases alleging that such behavior by Yelp is illegal.

"The business owners may deem the posting or order of user reviews as a threat of economic harm, but it is not unlawful for Yelp to post and sequence the reviews," Judge Marsha Berzon wrote for the three-judge panel.
