Sirius XM Radio Inc. has agreed to settle a closely watched copyright infringement case brought by two members of the 1960s band The Turtles that was set to go to trial on Tuesday in California.
Terms of the settlement, including the amount, were undisclosed, but in a notice filed on Monday, lawyers wrote that they planned to file a motion for preliminary approval on Dec. 5. Both sides are due in court on Tuesday to schedule a hearing for the settlement’s approval. Last year, Sirius paid $210 million to settle claims by several major record labels, some of whom were members of the class in the California case.
