(Bloomberg) -- Tracy Morgan and Wal-Mart Stores Inc. settled the actor-comedian’s lawsuit over a New Jersey Turnpike crash that had left him in a coma for days and killed another comedian.
Morgan was riding in a van that was struck from behind by a Wal-Mart truck in June. The terms of the settlement weren’t disclosed in a statement last week from Wal-Mart and Morgan’s lawyer, Benedict Morelli. Lawyers also asked a judge to seal documents related to the accord.
“Wal-Mart did right by me and my family, and for my associates and their families,” Morgan said in the statement. “I am grateful that the case was resolved amicably.”
