Lawyer: Kansas lawmaker reaches deal to end court order

-

An attorney says an incoming Kansas lawmaker who has faced a possible attempt to oust him once he took office has reached a legal agreement with a woman accusing him of harassment to end an anti-stalking court order against him. 

The order entered by a state court judge last month against Rep.-elect Aaron Coleman, 20, of Kansas City, Kansas, was a key reason for the potential attempt by fellow Democrats to expel Coleman. 

Attorney Barry Grissom represents the woman who accused Coleman of harassing her last year and sent The Associated Press a statement Wednesday saying the two settled her civil lawsuit that led to the judge’s no-contact restraining order.
