Melbourne:
Hollywood actress Demi Moore has entered into an out-of-court settlement with the Australian magazine she had sued for unlawfully publishing her party photos.
The Ghost star was set to appear in court to give evidence against New Idea magazine, but the two parties have now settled the case, reported The Australian online.
"The parties have resolved their differences and are glad that this matter is now behind them," said a spokeswoman for the gossip magazine.
The 47-year-old actress had launched a legal battle with the editors of New Idea for publishing unauthorised blackand white photographs that were taken at an Oscars party in 2008, said to be worth USD 200,000.
The photo booth-style snaps showed Moore posing with her daughter and stars like Orlando Bloom, Sean 'Diddy' Combs and Cameron Diaz.
"The publication of the photographs made it appear that she invited guests to a private party and then exploitedthem, including her own daughter, by selling a licence to publish photographs taken of them in private and compromising situations," Moore's lawyers said in papers filed with the court.
Justice John Middleton said the actress was no longer required to give evidence in the case.
Moore's lawyer said the matter had been "settled in principle" and a confidential agreement would be worked outand presented to the court on Tuesday, according to the AAP news agency.
