Tom Cruise Cruises To a Divorce Settlement With Katie Holmes

  Some issues remain unresolved, but, for now, the couple appear to have reached a divorce settlement.  Lawyers for the two may enter courtrooms again, however, the focus of this first phase of the case was to keep the breakup out of the news.  "I don't think either of the high-profile celebrities want their dirty laundry aired in technically a public forum," said Russel I. Marnell, an East Meadow, New York-based divorce lawyer.  See also, www.nytimes.com.
