CHICAGO (AP) -- Spokespeople for Michael Jordan and a supermarket chain say there's a settlement regarding the alleged misuse of the basketball star's name.
The case involves Jewel-Osco's use of Jordan's name in a 2009 Sports Illustrated ad. In August, a jury awarded Jordan $8.9 million from the now-defunct Dominick's for using his name in a similar ad.
Jewel and Jordan were set for trial in December, but a judge said they may be interested in a quick resolution given the Dominick's judgment. Attorneys disclosed settlement talks in October.
Jordan spokeswoman Estee Portnoy says the deal was reached last week.
