Madonna fans who sued the singer over the delayed start time of her ‘Celebration Tour’ show in New York have voluntarily dismissed their lawsuit.Plaintiffs Michael Fellows and Jason Alvarez gave notice of their dismissal with prejudice, which means that their claims cannot be tried again (via Rolling Stone).In a letter filed yesterday (Wednesday June 19), Jeff Warshafsky – who was representing both Madonna and Live Nation in the case – said that the dismissal “was not the result of any settlement” between the parties.He added that Madonna and the promoter “do not agree with plaintiffs’ position that each party should bear its own fees and costs” as the dismissal notice initially stated.
He pointed toward their legal expenses, including “filing two motions to dismiss” and opposing the false settlement notice that the court recently spiked.Warshafsky wrote: “Defendants believe that this action was a frivolous strike suit designed to force them to incur legal expenses.“Plaintiffs have now abandoned this lawsuit when it became clear that this approach would not result in a settlement payment and that they would need to oppose defendants’ motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint.”The plaintiffs first filed the suit against Madonna in January, after attending one of her shows at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn the previous month (December 13).
