While there is still a push by some to appeal the approved $765 million settlement approved by Judge Anita Brody last month, the family of Dave Duerson is dropping their intentions to appeal the agreement.
According to the Associated Press, Chicago lawyer Thomas Demetrio said the family of the former Bears safety doesn’t want to obstruct the financial awards being distributed to retirees in need of the assistance as soon as possible.
While Demetrio still sees issues with the agreement, the Duersons will support the plan for the sake of the other retirees.
