The Washington Commanders have settled a lawsuit filed by the District of Columbia attorney general's office, requiring them to pay more than half a million dollars for how they handled season-ticket security deposits in the past.

The franchise must pay $200,000 to impacted residents and another $425,000 to the district.

The suit contended that the team "systematically failed to return ticket holders' deposits and intentionally created barriers for fans to get refunds in violation of District law."

According to the settlement, the team continues to deny the district's allegations and claims.
