The case was previously put on hold in February following the rapper's death Yellowcard‘s legal battle against Juice WRLD‘s estate has been halted due to the coronavirus crisis, it has been reported.
The US pop-punk outfit filed a lawsuit in October of last year, alleging that Juice WRLD’s ‘Lucid Dreams’ illegally sampled their 2006 song ‘Holly Wood Died’.
They claimed that “melodic elements” in the two tracks were “virtually identical”. Yellowcard put legal proceedings on pause following Juice WRLD’s death in December, resuming them a week and a half later.
Back in February, the case was put on hold once again. According to The Blast, the $15 million (£12m) suit has now been halted amid the current COVID-19 pandemic.
