Christian Porter and the ABC have reached a settlement via mediation, ending the defamation lawsuit brought against the national broadcaster by the former Attorney General.
It is understood that no financial payments were made to Mr Porter.
Christian Porter launched a defamation case against the ABC earlier this year following a story by reporter Louise Milligan about a cabinet minister who was accused of a historical rape. It did not name Mr Porter.
The ABC story reported that a letter had been sent to Prime Minister Scott Morrison containing the allegation.
Mr Porter came forward some days after the report identifying himself as the minister in question, and vehemently denying the allegations made against him.
