Prince has headed off legal action from his former lawyer by settling an unpaid bill of $50,000 (£33,333).
The Purple Rain hitmaker was hit with a lawsuit in August (10) after attorney Ed MCDonald claimed the star failed to pay him for his work on two different cases.
But this week (beg13Sep10) MCPherson filed documents to dismiss the case because Prince has now settled the bill, according to TMZ.com.
