Jack in the Box’s lawsuit against FTX US over an alleged mascot-related copyright and trademark infringement has come to an end after the parties reached a settlement.

The duo informed the District Court for the Southern District of California that they had resolved the dispute via a motion to dismiss on Jan. 20, however the specific details of the settlement have not been disclosed.

The popular fast food chain initially filed the suit at the start of November, alleging that the appearance and behavior of FTX US’s “Moon Man” mascot was a rip off of Jack in the Box’s “Jack” mascot that has trademark rights dating back to 1995.

Jack in the Box was initially seeking unspecified damages over allegations related to copyright infringement, trademark dilution, trademark infringement, false designation of origin and unfair competition.
