Kerry Brown & Krushial K. Productions v. Roc Nation, Sony Music Entertainment Digital LLC et al.
B&L aggressively pressed plaintiffs’ counsel to dismiss their music copyright infringement lawsuit against B&L’s client Sony Music. Plaintiffs asserted that Sony Music distributed rapper A$AP Ferg’s song “Plain Jane,” which allegedly included plaintiffs’ copyrighted work. Shortly after B&L’s designated sound recording expert analyzed plaintiffs’ copyrighted work and compared it to the song “Plain Jane,” plaintiffs promptly dismissed their lawsuit following a hearing on B&L’s Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss.
