Usher settles herpes lawsuit

Usher has put the $20 million herpes lawsuit with Laura Helm behind him as the case has again been dismissed, this time via a settlement.
 
Helm filed to dismiss her suit earlier this week after reaching an amicable resolution with the R&B star.
 
The dismissal was filed with prejudice, meaning it cannot be refiled, and that is typically done when there has been a financial settlement. 
 
Helm sued the singer back in 2017 claiming he had exposed her to the virus when they had unprotected sex. 
 
She initially sued for $10 million, then upped it to $20 million for emotional harm and punitive damages.
