Legal Question in Entertainment Law in New Jersey
Producer of CD is going after band because Record Company failed to pay
The record producer made a deal with the record company to made a CD and now the record company will not pay. Now the producer wants to make the band pay for the CD when they never had anything to do with the deal between the producer and the record company - record company is threatening to sue and has sent a ridiculous contract that he wants us to sign giving him royalties and to pay $1000 per month until paid

Re: Producer of CD is going after band because Record Company failed to pay
Why isn't the record company paying? And why isn't the producer threatening to sue the record company? The situation sounds awfully strange. I'd want to learn the basis for the record company's refusal to pay, and the producer's basis for coming at you with a contract.

Do you have a contract with anybody? What do they say? Who wrote the material? What do you want to do with the CD? The answer depends on these issues.

You would be well advised to engage an attorney to handle this producer and to assist you in avoiding this type of situation in the future. My firm focuses on Internet and entertainment law.
