Bob Dylan would like it to be known that judge Barry Ostrager was dead right when he dismissed a lawsuit filed by the estate of one of his former collaborators. And given just how dead right Ostrager undoubtedly was, why allow that estate to have a second go at grabbing a cut of Dylan’s big pay day from his 2020 Universal catalogue deal?Jacques Levy collaborated with Dylan back in the 1970s, ultimately co-writing seven of the nine songs that appear on the 1976 album ‘Desire’.
He also directed Dylan’s 1975 ‘Rolling Thunder Revue’ tour, which featured many of those ‘Desire’ songs.Levy’s estate went legal after Dylan did that big deal with Universal Music Publishing, in which he sold his songs catalogue to the major for a reported $300 million. The estate argued that it was co-owner of the ‘Desire’ songs and should therefore get a cut of the Universal money in relation to those works.However, when Levy and Dylan collaborated the former had a work-for-hire agreement with the latter.
Under US law, that means Dylan owned the copyright in the songs they created together. While that agreement provided Levy with a share of any money generated by the songs, it didn’t give him co-ownership of the actual copyrights that were sold to Universal.Also, while Dylan won’t be getting any future royalties from the major having taken that big up-front cheque, collaborators like Levy – due royalties under past deals with the musician – will continue to get their share of any future income that their songs generate.But the estate argued that, while Levy’s agreement with Dylan was technically a work-for-hire arrangement, the deal was “highly atypical of a work-for-hire agreement, bestowing on plaintiff’s considerable significant material rights
