The U.S. District Court judge overseeing a 2019 sexual harassment lawsuit against Wynn Resorts Ltd. by nine anonymous women has signed off on a settlement agreement first announced in September.

Judge Gloria Navarro on Friday — nearly six years to the day since a major scandal at Wynn began — granted a stipulation for dismissal with prejudice, which means the case will not be further appealed or brought back to court.

The settlement was first announced Sept. 6 and the settlement amount and other details were sealed by the court.

The judge’s action brings to a close a series of events that has forever changed Wynn Resorts, ranging from the departures of several executives to a revamping of the company’s board of directors.
