Sandman settled. The settlement amounts were not released. No company would ever "settle" a suit for 100% of what they were being sued for.
I don't know how much Sandman got in the settlement but I'm pretty damn sure it wasn't $250 million.

Beat me by 6 mins. The $250 million was certainly for publicity; you can sue someone for any amount you want, but a judge is only going to award what he thinks is reasonable, and a settlement will generally be for less than that.
If your neighbor drives his car through your fence you can sue him for $50 million if you want, but obviously a judge will never award that
