FILE Musician Don Henley arrives at court in New York, Feb. 28, 2024. Henley filed a lawsuit Friday, June 28, 2024, in Brooklyn, N.Y., federal court seeking the return of his handwritten song notes and lyrics from the band's iconic Hotel California album. The civil complaint comes after prosecutors in March abruptly dropped criminal charges midway through trial against three collectibles experts accused of scheming to sell the pages.
According to the lawsuit, the handwritten pages remain in the custody of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office, which didn't immediately comment Friday on the litigation. “Don Henley is desperate to rewrite history,” Crowley said in his statement. “We look forward to litigating this case and bringing a lawsuit against Henley to hold him accountable for his repeated lies and misuse of the justice system.”
During the trial, the men's lawyers argued that Henley gave the lyrics pages decades ago to a writer who worked on aand later sold the handwritten sheets to Horowitz. He, in turn, sold them to Inciardi and Kosinski, who started putting some of the pages up for auction in 2012.
