The lawsuit was filed in 2021 and alleged that HSN had breached its contract with Cartier by failing to pay him for his jewelry designs. Cartier also alleged that HSN had infringed on his copyrights by selling jewelry that was substantially similar to his designs.
HSN denied all of the allegations in the lawsuit. The company said that it had paid Cartier in full for his services and that it had not infringed on his copyrights.
The settlement of the lawsuit brings an end to a long-running legal battle between Cartier and HSN. It is unclear how much money Cartier received in the settlement.
