Their settlement calls for no exchange of money between the parties, but the woman will receive a separate $300,000 payout from insurance, her attorney told Bauer's lawyers.
Former Dodgers pitcher Trevor Bauer and a woman who accused him of beating and sexually assaulting her in 2021 have settled their legal dispute, Bauer's attorneys said Monday.
The former Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher was placed on administrative leave by MLB in July 2021 after the allegations were made by the woman, who said Bauer assaulted her on two different occasions at his home in Pasadena during what she said began as consensual sexual encounters between them.Prosecutors decided not to file charges in February 2022.
"Quite frankly, regardless of the outcome in court, I've paid significantly more in legal fees than could ever pay me in her entire life, and I knew that would be the case going in," Bauer said in a video statement. "But the lawsuit was never about the money for me. It was the only way for me to obtain critical information to clear my name.
