Quincy Jones' Michael Jackson Lawsuit Moving Forward was a Top 3 story on Friday: (Radio.com) Since Michael Jackson's death, his estate has released a number of posthumous works: Quincy Jones filed suit against the estate for what he considers his share of the royalties.

The allegations were first made in 2013 when Jones sued Sony Entertainment and MJJ Productions (controlled by the Jackson estate) and claimed that the legendary producer's contributions were remixed to cut him out of the profits.
