ATLANTA (AP) A woman who charged in a lawsuit that Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick gave her a sexually transmitted disease has agreed to an undisclosed resolution of the case, Vick's attorney told The Associated Press on Monday.

``The case has been resolved,'' said Lawrence Woodward, Vick's attorney.

When asked if the details of the agreement between Vick and the woman, Sonya Elliott, would be disclosed, Woodward said: ``The only comment I've got is the case has been resolved.''

Elliott, a 26-year-old health care worker, claimed she tested positive for herpes after unprotected sex with Vick in April 2003. In the complaint, filed in Gwinnett County State Court, Elliott contended that Vick ``apologized profusely'' for failing to disclose he was infected with the disease, which can be treated but not cured.

The lawsuit also claimed Vick used the alias ``Ron Mexico'' when seeking treatment for the disease.

The settlement of the civil action was first reported by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Monday on its Web site. Elliott's attorney could not immediately be reached for comment.
