Allred did not reveal the terms of the settlement, but said one of the requirements included Kanye apologizing to Ramos, which was captured in a photograph she put out with a statement on Tuesday.
Punishment: The rapper was placed on probation for 24-months and ordered tocomplete 240 hours of community service and 24 anger management sessions
Ramos, who was also attacked by Britney Spears with an umbrella in 2007, was taken to hospital following the assault.
