Mosberg said the deal was made “from this morning” and that they would get it to Sattler by the end of next week, after all revisions and other formalities. Details of the deal were not discussed in court.

Sattler asked Olsen’s lawyer Nancy Chemtob if this was true. Chemtob replied in the affirmative, saying, “All issues have been resolved.”

“Until I actually see the evidence, I’m going to keep my feet on the fire for a bit,” Sattler said, also remarking, “I’m going to keep this case under control so we make sure that gets done.” … let’s go. this is done and get them divorced.
