(CBS/AP) ORLANDO, Fla. - Casey Anthony has reached a settlement in her bankruptcy case with a Texas search group that helped look for her missing 2-year-old daughter.

Texas EquuSearch Mounted Search and Recovery will be allowed to have an unsecured claim of $75,000 in Anthony's bankruptcy case under the terms of the settlement filed late last week in federal bankruptcy court in Tampa.
The search group won't be entitled to any other claims and won't be allowed any further dealings in the case.
According to the Orlando Sentinel, it appears unlikely EquuSearch will get much, if any, of that money. EquuSearch attorney Marc Wites reportedly acknowledged Monday that Chapter 7 creditors "usually receive very little money, if anything."
The group had objected to the bankruptcy, claiming it spent more than $100,000 searching for the girl in 2008. Attorneys for the group said Anthony knew her daughter was already dead.
The settlement reportedly does not require Anthony to admit liability.
Anthony was acquitted of murder in the death. She filed for bankruptcy in January.
Two other Anthony creditors have complaints pending against her in federal court, according to the paper. A judge is reportedly scheduled to hear motions to dismiss those complaints next month.
