Diddy RICO Case Explained, Garth Brooks Abuse Accusations, Jay-Z Dispute & More Music Law News


Diddy's case explained by R. Kelly's prosecutors, Garth Brooks faces abuse accusations, and more law news in music also involving Jay-Z and TikTok.

This week: A deep dive into the case against Diddy with the help of R. Kelly’s prosecutors; sexual abuse allegations against country star Garth Brooks; a judge refuses to rule on the rights to Jay-Z’s debut album; and much more. REASONABLE DOUBT DISPUTE – With a court-ordered auction looming to sell off Damon Dash ’s one-third stake in Jay-Z ’s Roc-A-Fella Records, the judge overseeing the case said he would not rule on a thorny question of copyright law. The ruling effectively finalizes one of Kelly’s two sets of sex abuse convictions; the other — a September 2021 guilty verdict on racketeering charges brought by prosecutors in New York that resulted in a 30-year prison sentence — is still pending on appeal before a lower appellate court.
