Bruce Zamost, the attorney for Evesham Officer Jeremy Merck, says his client agreed to the settlement last month.
The suit stemmed from a February 2010 incident at a Marlton deli. The cook, Ryan Burke of Stratford, was immediately fired and eventually pleaded guilty to aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer and retaliation against a public official.
Burke was sentenced to 15 days in jail and received two years of probation, but Merck thought that sentence was insufficient.
Burke and the deli will pay unspecified portions of the $13,750 settlement.
