Jackson Sues Universal Over Motown Royalties

Reuters reports Michael Jackson, who went to war last year with Sony Music, is now suing his old record label seeking unpaid royalties and rights to his Motown catalog. The lawsuit, filed on Thursday in Los Angeles Superior Court, accuses Motown Records and its Universal Music parent company of reneging on the terms of a 1980 agreement that settled an acrimonious split from Motown by Jackson and his brothers in 1976.
