You have no right to tell me what to do!", according to the lawsuit.Depp allegedly punched Brooks twice in the lower rib cage, according to the lawsuit. Brooks claimed that Depp had alcohol on his breath, and shouted "I will give you $100,000 to punch me in the face right now!"The case was set for a final status conference before trial on Tuesday (Pacific Standard Time). On Monday, the notice of settlement was sent to the judge. The suit is expected to be dismissed once the settlement is completed.
