Beyonce vs Markowitz lawsuit reached a 5 figure settlement:
The man was upset because of the noise and also from illegal trespassing in his property while filming “Why Don’t You Love Me”, and because he had no access to his home.
Nevertheless, the lawsuit was dismissed and a settlement closed the case. Beyonce paid the man a 5 figure settlement due to “invaded his neighborhood”.
The man sad: “I’m happy with the settlement, but this lawsuit shouldn’t have happened in the first place. They set up on my property without asking and [the settlement] should send a notice to other production companies that they need to respect the rights of property owners.”
According to Markowitz’s attorney both sides were satisfied. “No one got rich, no one got poor,” Kurtz said. “It was a modest but appropriate payment that was similar to what would have been paid pursuant to a reasonable agreement.”

Disgusting! She spent legal fees for nothing. Just pay what's owed from the start!

This is interesting! So it sounds like she goes around picking what she wants hoping no one will challenge her. If they do, calls bluff, then settles out of court.
I'm just wondering though, does settling out of court involve any admission of wrongdoing?

Settling out of court is advised when your lawyer thinks you can't win or when the case will have far a more negative impact on image than is worth the settlement money. zalso when you know you are wrong but can't afford to make that public knowledge. |

She'd spend more in legal fees defending herself as opposed to settling. It could get long and drawn out, she can't make court date appearances die to contractual obligations, so if she did proceed she would risk losing, pay a lawyer tons of Money
