CBS News reported that Dolly Parton's estate has moved to dismiss a lawsuit against her nephew, Bryan Seaver. The network said the details of the resolution between the estate and Seaver were not immediately known.

Billboard reported that the estate dropped its lawsuit against the late star's nephew over what the headline described as alleged threats. In the report by Rachel Scharf, lawyers for Seaver said last week that they and the Parton estate had been "engaged in good faith discussions in an attempt to resolve this matter."

The New York Times reported that Danny Nozell, Parton's manager, had dropped a lawsuit against Seaver. In its report, written by Julia Jacobs, the paper said Nozell had accused Seaver of waging a campaign to extract money from Ms. Parton's estate, and that Seaver denied the accusations.

The accounts differ on who took the action. CBS News and Billboard attributed the move to the estate, while The New York Times attributed the dropped suit to Nozell. Billboard's headline described the matter as involving alleged threats, while The New York Times described accusations centered on money. Readers should note that the three reports are not in full agreement on the parties involved.

Billboard described Parton as the late star, and the reports identify Seaver as her nephew. The reports do not describe the terms of any resolution. CBS News said those details were not immediately known, and Billboard reported that Seaver's lawyers said the parties had been in good faith discussions. The New York Times reported Seaver's denial of the accusations made by Nozell.
