Bob Marley clan settles lawsuit with late singer half-brother

Rita Marley and children recently filed a federal lawsuit against Richard Booker, the half brother of Bob Marley, for infringement and unauthorized use of the name "Marley".

Booker then filed counter suit stating that he got permission from Bob to use his name before he died. A settlement was reached and both parties has settled out of court

 

Booker's lawyer, Michael I. Santucci, tells TMZ, "This was a very sensitive case because the legacy of a great man and family were at stake. From what I have learned about Bob Marley, he would be very happy, especially that his family is now at peace. Both parties were happy with the settlement agreement."
