          The lawyer for Democratic state delegate Joseph D. Morrissey says their $10.35 million 
libel lawsuit against 
Style Weekly set to go to trial yesterday has been resolved in their favor. The attorney says the settlement includes "a full, unreserved and unequivocal apology" from 
Style and "a significant cash settlement." 
Style publisher Lori Collier Waran says that the paper will "let the apology speak for itself," and that it is happy to have the suit -- "a distraction for our staff" -- over.
