Anyone ever hear what happened to that one?

Last summer, that coach had a team playing in a summer tournament here in our area...her brother-in-law (the one who did the recording) was also there and I talked with him. Asked him what the outcome was and he told me it was settled out of court - no details.
The coach got a little animated at one point towards a partner...I was C table-side and turned to her and said something along the lines of "You need to find a different way to communicate with us, coach" and she looked at me shocked, and said "Ok, thank you sir. I didn't realize refs would actually talk to me anymore." Pretty sad...
