              Suit Settled Over 'Back to the Future' DeLorean Name

   by Associated Press

   In time for "Back to the Future" day, the widow of the automaker whose
   famous car was used in the movie has settled a lawsuit over the use of
   his name.

   John DeLorean's widow sued in federal court last year claiming a Texas
   company has been using the DeLorean name illegally for years.

   The DMC-12, known simply as "the DeLorean," was driven by Michael J.
   Fox in the 1985 movie. In the movie's sequel, he travels to Oct. 21,
   2015.

   Last month, an agreement was reached in which the Texas-based DeLorean
   Motor Company will pay Sally DeLorean an undisclosed amount of money
   and retain rights to use its name, logo and trademarks.

   John DeLorean died in New Jersey in 2005 at 80.
