Melissa Etheridge's Domestic Partnership War Is Over

The former couple hashed out an agreement last night as part of court-ordered mediation.

The settlement covers both partner and child support. As TMZ first reported, Tammy had been receiving a total of $23,000 a month from Melissa, but claimed she was barely scraping by and that Melissa could afford to pay more since she was raking in $177,882 a month.

Sources connected with the couple tell TMZ ... under the terms of the settlement, Tammy will net more than the $23,000 a month, though we don't have the exact figure.
