Pop mogul Lou Pearlman and his company Transcontinental Records have been found in contempt of court in Florida after he ignored Judge William Leven's order to produce documents relating to royalty payments owing to Aaron Carter. The teen star's parents are suing Pearlman – the man behind the Backstreet Boys, *Nsync and Britney Spears – to gain full accounts of any profits he has made through their son's music. The judge fined Pearlman and the company $2,500 each.
