Does anyone know what the outcome of this case was?? Has there been a ruling or has Gordon Ramsay settled?

This is from wikipedia under Gordon Ramsay
"Similarly, in June 2007, Ramsay's show was again sued, alleging fakery, this time by the terminated general manager (Martin Hyde) of the New York restaurant Purnima (Dillon's). The lawsuit alleged that "unknown to the viewing audience, some or all of Kitchen Nightmares are fake and the so-called 'problems uncovered and solved' by Ramsay are, for the most part, created by Ramsay and his staff for the purpose of making it appear that Ramsay is improving the restaurant".[35] However, in August 2007, the case was dismissed voluntarily and ordered into arbitration as stipulated in their contract.[36]"

The reference (no 36) for this last bit is a New York Post article - http://www.nypost.com/seven/08102007/news/regio...
Can anyone transalte what this actually means? Does Gordon Ramsay have to pay out or admit anything?
