Shares of Warnaco (WAC :NYSE - news) rocketed Monday afternoon after Calvin Klein announced it was dropping a trade infringement lawsuit against the clothing manufacturer and its CEO, Linda Wachner.

In midafternoon trading on the New York Stock Exchange, Warnaco shares were up $1, or 40%, to $3.50.

According to published reports, the settlement came minutes before a judge was to begin selecting jurors for Calvin Klein's suit against Warnaco, which sells its apparel under a variety of internationally owned and licensed brand names, including Calvin Klein. While the companies released a joint statement of continued partnership, details of the agreement were not made public.

In May, Calvin Klein sued Warnaco and Wachner, alleging the manufacturer violated terms of a jeans licensing agreement and accusing Warnaco of damaging the brand by selling jeans to discount outlets without permission.
