By Ethan Millman, The Hollywood Reporter | The move comes two years after Hall sued Oates over his intent to sell his half of their joint venture to Primary Wave. Daryl Hall and John Oates‘ legal dispute is over, as the matter has ended out of court, according to legal documents filed in Nashville on Monday.
Hall’s suit against Oates has ended in arbitration, per Rolling Stone, meaning there are no details on how the matter actually resolved, or what the terms of the voluntary dismissal were. Hall had first sued his longtime songwriting partner in November 2023 over Oates’ intent to sell his half of their joint venture Whole Oates Enterprises to the music company Primary Wave. As Rolling Stone reported at the time, Hall called Oates’ intent to sell his half the “ultimate partnership betrayal.”
“There is no amount of money that could compensate me for being forced to partner with an entity that I did not agree to partner with, and whose business model does not comport with my views,” Hall wrote in a declaration.
