Question:

KPMG filed a civil lawsuit against Diligence, Inc., in 2005 after learning of the “sting operation” that firm had perpetuated on Guy Enright.

Assuming that KPMG believed it would ultimately win a civil judgment against Diligence, why would the accounting firm choose to settle the lawsuit out of court? Explain.
