KEITH COPYRIGHT CASE DISMISSED
A copyright infringement lawsuit against country star TOBY KEITH has been dropped.
Toby Keith performs on CBS ' The Early Show ' Summer Concert series. New York City, USA - 18.06.07
The hitmaker was sued by singer/songwriter Michael McCloud, who claimed the country hunk's I Love This Bar song was too similar to his own Tourist Town Bar to be a coincidence. But Keith was keen to fight the case in court - and prove his innocence.
He says, "It is an awful thing to be accused wrongfully of copyright infringement.
"I was put in the terrible position of not being able to defend myself until the trial and I just could not wait for that day to come.
"I knew it would take no time at all for the case to be dismissed and it was, of course, with prejudice, which means he had no case whatsoever."
