Part of a claim against Barry Manilow over unpaid royalties and a bonus to the singer should be paused in England while similar legal action in the US is ongoing, a High Court judge has ruled.
Hipgnosis Songs Fund has had an agreement with Manilow since 2020 where the US singer would provide his worldwide earnings in return for a 1.5 million dollar (£1.19 million) bonus if Hipgnosis met two performance targets.
