LOS ANGELES - Court records show a lawsuit filed against Leonardo DiCaprio by his neighbors over a basketball court has been dismissed.
Lawyers for the "Titanic" and "The Departed" star and a neighboring couple have been trying to resolve the case for months. A dismissal of the entire case was entered last week. Court records do not spell out the terms of any settlement.
The couple sued DiCaprio in May 2007, claiming their Hollywood Hills property was illegally excavated and some plants were removed so the actor could have a basketball court built at his rented home in 2004.
The case grew to include several construction firms, who have also been dismissed.
