J-Lo book law case update

The dispute over a proposed book by Jennifer Lopez's ex-husband Ojani Noa will not go to trial, with both parties saying it can be settled through arbitration.

That previously reported dispute over a proposed book by Jennifer Lopez's ex-husband Ojani Noa will not now go to trial, according to lawyers for both parties, who have told the Los Angeles Superior Court that the issue can be solved out of court through arbitration. The singer herself was not present in court on Wednesday, but will be forced to attend if the judge orders a mandatory settlement discussion.

As previously reported, Lopez obtained a restraining order back in April which barred Noa from publishing intimate details about their life together, and that was subsequently extended to become a preliminary injunction at the end of June, with the agreement of both parties.

To be honest, I'm not sure I really understand any of this. But then I'm not the legal brains of this outfit. The next pre-trial hearing will take place on 17 Oct.
