Machine Entertainment Group and Joseph Bowden were hit with a copyright infringement lawsuit on Oct. 25 in Georgia Northern District Court. The complaint was filed by ChaudhryLaw and the Law Offices of Marguerite E. Patrick on behalf of Herbert Randall Wright III p/k/a G Herbo; according to the complaint, Bowden refuses to acknowledge an agreement that returned copyrights to G Herbo's songs to the artist by spreading false and defamatory misrepresentations that G Herbo forced him to sign it with threats of violence. The suit contends that Bowden still distributes G Herbo's songs and seeks a declaration that the release agreement is valid and enforceable. Counsel have not yet appeared for the defendants. The case is 1:23-cv-04911, Wright v. Machine Entertainment Group LLC.
