Love's other legal action postponed

Courtney Love's contract dispute with Universal Music Group has been postponed while both sides pursue settlement talks, with trial set for 3 September otherwise.

After reports that relations between Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic and Courtney Love have improved, despite the continuing legal dispute over the Nirvana back catalogue (released or otherwise), Love’s other major legal wranglings have been put on hold. At a court hearing on Tuesday the contract-dispute case between Love and the Universal Music Group was postponed at the request of lawyers for both sides, who wish to continue settlement talks. If no agreement can be reached, the case should finally go to trial in the LA Superior Court on 3 Sep. The dispute is over whether or not Love should complete her seven album contract (according to which she owes five albums) now her record label Geffen has been sold to the Universal Music Group.
