Bill Cosby's insurer settles LA accuser's suit before deposition

[TexasTowelie]

PHILADELPHIA — Bill Cosby says his insurance company is settling another accuser's lawsuit without his permission, a week before his scheduled deposition.

Cosby in a statement accuses American International Group Inc. of "egregious behavior." He says he could have proven he was in New York during the alleged 2008 encounter with 18-year-old Chloe Goins at the Playboy Mansion in Los Angeles.

Lawyer Craig Goldenfarb says Goins is pleased with the confidential settlement. Messages were left with AIG officials Tuesday.
