The family that sued the OPP and Ontario government over the handling of the aboriginal occupation of a housing development in Caledonia has settled out of court.
The family filed a $7-million lawsuit, claiming they lived under siege after protesters occupied the Douglas Creek Estates in 2006.
The trial which started in November was considered a landmark case because the couple sued police, charging they had been abandoned by authorities.
Michael Bordin, who represents David Brown and Dana Chatwell, says they are pleased it's settled and the couple are moving within Caledonia.
Brendan Crawley, spokesman for the Ministry of the Attorney General, also says the government is pleased the matter is resolved.
Bordin says the terms of the settlement are confidential.
