Disney and Florida have agreed on a settlement to end their legal dispute over governance of the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District, established by Republican Gov Ron DeSantis two years ago. The conflict escalated in March 2022 when Disney\'s then-CEO criticized a bill restricting certain classroom instruction, leading DeSantis to seek changes in Disney\'s special privileges. Per the settlement, Disney will drop its lawsuit against the tax district for withholding files, avoiding a trial scheduled for June.
