Pryor's widow settles case
The widow of legendary comic Richard Pryor has settled a lawsuit accusing Universal Music Group of selling 11 of the comedian's recordings without authorization, the Associated Press reported. Pryor sued Universal two months before his death, charging the company had released the recordings without his knowledge or permission. After he died of a heart attack in December 2005, his widow, Jennifer Pryor, was allowed to take over as plaintiff. Terms of the settlement were not disclosed. In his suit, Pryor said it was years before he learned Universal had licensed such titles as Wizard of Comedy, I Ain't Lied Yet, and Are You Serious? |
