Katy Perry and Russell Brand have reached a divorce settlement. According to a filing on Tuesday in the Los Angeles Superior Court they have arrived at a "comprehensive written settlement of all issues."

With no children at issue, the agreement covers distribution of their property, Perry's papers say, and she asks that the court not be involved in awarding spousal support to Brand.

Perry, 27, also seeks to legally restore her maiden name to Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson.

In his own court filing, Brand, 36, also signals that they've reached a settlement, checking the boxes that say both sides "agree this cause may be decided as an uncontested matter" and they waive their rights to a trial.

Brand filed for divorce in December citing "irreconcilable differences." There was no date given when Perry and Brand actually separated. The former couple were married in October 2010 in a lavish wedding at a resort inside a tiger reserve in India.
