    The New York Yankees and New York City settled a civil rights lawsuit brought by a spectator who was ousted from Yankees Stadium by the NYPD for taking a bathroom break while the song 'God Bless America' played.

    New York City is paying plaintiff Bradford Campeau-Laurion $10,001, and his attorneys $12,000 in legal fees for their work in the case, without any admission of liability by the Yankees, NYPD, or NYC.
