Re: Estate, Cascio and Porte Sued Over Three Songs on the "Michael" Album - Vera Senova Class Action
Why not? The case is in public court, all filings are in public domain, I gain nothing from secrecy. As to the copyrighted songs in particular, he heard them before I did anyway.
Re: Estate, Cascio and Porte Sued Over Three Songs on the "Michael" Album - Vera Senova Class Action
I'll leave it to Damien to share the details. It's his story to tell - my place is to see justice in court .
The complaint is based on his findings, and they were cited in subsequent court...

Those collections copyrighted in June of 2009 contain songs with James Porte's vocals. Not MJ's, and not Cascio tracks vocalist's.
Re: Estate, Cascio and Porte Sued Over Three Songs on the "Michael" Album - Vera Senova Class Action
You misunderstand both the procedure and the law. Once Sony and the Estate brought the "free speech" defense, we could not choose any alternate route, we had to respond to their defense. So it...
Re: Cascio/Sony lawsuit
No. The case is stayed because Sony and the Estate are appealing the trial court's denial of their anti-SLAPP motion. During the duration of the appeal, the trial court proceedings are stayed according to the procedural rules. The trial has not started.
I think Damien Shield's new article belongs here.

To be honest, it's hard to see past hypocrisy in this press release. the kind Damien highlighted yesterday in his article on the subject https://goo.gl/kpV63b But that's me, I'm biased.
Past mistakes aside, I wish they partnered with someone else - someone who would be able to bring Michael's...
I thought it was a fun post, but you lost me at "Black Widow."
If I only got to do one project, I would do an Invincible 10-year anniversary album in 2011. It was voted the most underappreciated album of the decade after Michael had died, so it was perfect timing to give it a second life. I'd...
They should have hired you as a consultant! I personally don't think the Conformity/real woman message is that important (although it may be trendy), but the idea of three Michael's incarnations each have a different talent is awesome! Would have been great to show different facets of Michael's...
As far as I recall Buxer's comments, there are versions with different instrumental arrangements, some possibly richer than what was released, but vocal-wise the UC version represents the length the song went.
There is no perfect one, but there are several good ones:
Man In the Music by Joe Vogel - on the music career
The King of Style by Michael Bush - on Michael the entertainer
The Maestro by Chris Cadman - an encyclopedia of all creative works by Michael and his family
You Are Not Alone by...
To be fair, Robson probably has no idea about any of this. Most plaintiffs are not closely involved in how their lawyers run the case, and the lawyer has the power to decide how the case should be run on behalf of the plaintiff. Especially in contingency cases (which, I'm assuming, this is one...
