A federal judge has dismissed several iconic musicians’ lawsuit against Universal Music Group over a 2008 warehouse fire that destroyed archived recordings, The New York Times reports.

The lawsuit was filed by Soundgarden, Steve Earle, Hole, and the estates of Tupac Shakur and Tom Petty last year in response to a Times investigation of Hollywood warehouse fire that reportedly destroyed many master tapes.

Following the case’s filing, all of the plaintiffs dropped out of the lawsuit except Tom Petty’s former wife Jane Petty. Hole dropped out in August “based on UMG’s written assurances to Plaintiffs’ counsel that no Hole master recordings were lost in the fire.” Soundgarden and Tupac’s estate pulled out last month.
