Background Question

[PhxRider3]

I was previously employed as a Police Officer until Jan of this year on the East Coast. I am now applying to Departments in California and Arizona. The only thing that I am concerned about in my background is that I sued my Dept for Harassment and left with a settlement. However I signed an agreement with my Dept and the City that I cannot discuss the terms of the agreement with no one and cannot furnish any documents for the agreement. My lawyer cannot only acknowledge that there was a suit and cannot reveal any facts. My Dept can acknowledge the agreement and cannot reveal anything also. My superviors all like me and gave me a letters of reference when i left. So I guess my administration will give my thumbs down and my supervisors will give me thumbs up. How will this affect my background? Any info would be appreciated
