Don Henley Files Lawsuit Over Eagles Lyric Sheets

Don Henley, from the Eagles, has filed a lawsuit to reclaim around 100 pages of his personal handwritten lyric sheets, including those for 'Hotel California,' after a previous trial involving stolen manuscripts was halted in March. The lyric sheets, currently held by the New York County District Attorney, were the subject of an indictment against individuals accused of attempting to profit from them. Henley asserts his ownership of the materials, emphasizing they were stolen and should be returned to him. Despite criminal charges being dropped, Henley continues to pursue legal action to establish his rightful ownership of the lyrics, which have historical significance for the band's iconic 1976 album.
