Shannen Doherty has reached a settlement in her lawsuit against her former manager and management firm.
Court papers obtained by TheWrap indicate that a notice of settlement was filed on Friday. However, the papers do not disclose the terms of the settlement.
The former “Beverly Hills, 90210” star sued the firm Tanner Mainstain Glynn & Johnston and manager Steven D. Blatt a year ago, claiming that the firm failed to pay her Screen Actors Guild medical insurance in 2014 and that the lapse delayed her breast-cancer diagnosis.
“Plaintiff was informed that her cancer had spread during 2014 (when she was not insured). Plaintiff was also informed that, had she been insured and able to visit her doctor, the cancer could potentially have been stopped, thus obviating the need for future treatment (including mastectomy and chemotherapy) that Plaintiff will likely have to suffer through now,” Doherty’s lawsuit read.
In addition to current and future medical expenses, Doherty claimed that the cancer diagnosis has caused “severe emotional distress.”
A spokesperson for Doherty has not yet responded to TheWrap’s request for comment.
Recently, the actress documented her battle against cancer, posting a series of black-and-white pictures of Doherty, including one shot of her cutting her own hair. and another of her head shaved.
