There were no legal proceedings at all with that case. Weird Al as a courtesy always asks before making parodies, and he thought he got permission directly from Coolio, when apparently he did not. It was purely a "disgruntled" manner.
Parodies have long been protected under US copyright law's fair use doctrine.
