Pryor Cashman successfully secured the dismissal of Chris Brown and Sony Music from a copyright suit filed by a songwriter in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida.

The lawsuit claimed that Brown’s song “No Guidance” used elements of another song without permission; Brown is a Sony Music recording artist.

U.S. District Judge Rodolfo Ruiz II reviewed an agreement that would end the matter and allowed Brown and Sony to be dropped from the suit.
