Legal action dropped

FAST food chain McDonalds has agreed to drop legal action against the Tecoma 8.
Those against the controversial development have protested since 2011.
Last month, the group took its protest to Chicago where the McDonald’s international headquarters is based.
McDonald’s took out a court injunction in July against eight people involved in protests at the Tecoma site earlier this year.
At the time of the legal action, McDonald’s said the group was trespassing and being a nuisance.
After mediation talks, both sides have now agreed to drop the legal action.
The matter will now go before a judge before it can be approved.
