Johnson & Johnson and the American Red Cross have resolved a lawsuit over the use of their shared red-and-white symbol.

The deal was announced Tuesday. It comes after a federal judge tossed out most of health-products maker Johnson & Johnson's lawsuit, upholding the Red Cross' right to use the emblem.

The judge said the group also had leeway to use the logo to promote itself and raise money for its charitable works.
