In December, the Andersons and other defendants urged the presiding judge, Troy Nunely, to dismiss the case based on their assertion that Flannery Associates had no evidence of collusion between the families.
The company spent $9 million to put its initiative, called the East Solano Plan, on November's ballot, but pulled it just months before the election - a decision that was at least partly influenced by the division the suit caused in the community.
As the East Solano plan began moving forward earlier this year, influential organizations pointed to the ongoing suit as one of the biggest reasons they opposed the project and distrusted the company behind it.
We are happy to confirm that we have settled the price-fixing litigation with the majority of the remaining defendants, said Julia Blystone, a spokesperson for California Forever.
