Quincy Jones Suing Michael Jackson Estate for Back Royalties
Quincy Jones is suing the Estate of Michael Jackson claiming he's owed millions in unpaid royalties...
Quincy Jones faced off with lawyers from the Estate of Michael Jackson this week claiming he's owed $30 million in royalties.
The iconic music producer claims he was properly paid for his production work on 'Off the Wall', 'Thriller' and 'Bad' up until Michael Jackson's death, but after his death, when his music skyrocketed in popularity the Estate did not pay Jones his fair share.
Jones is also seeking royalties from the 'This Is It' movie and a Cirque du Soleil show in Las Vegas.
The case is ongoing.
