Adultery website AshleyMadison.coms owner agreed to pay a steeply discounted $1.65 million settlement to resolve state and federal probes into a 2015 hack that exposed personal data of 37 million users.
VWs legal woes are far from over, as evidenced by the states suits and ongoing criminal probes, despite its $15.3 billion settlement with regulators and customers in June.
A federal judge dismissed a swathe of customer claims in the litigation over GMs deadly ignition switch defect that triggered the recall of millions of vehicles.
The maker of the assault rifle used in the 2012 massacre of more than two dozen students and teachers at Sandy Hook Elementary School was ordered to allow its executives to be questioned.
