George Clinton Wins Court Case for Possession Of Funkadelic Masters 

In a sweeping decision on Thursday, June 2, 2005, United States District Court Judge Manuel L. Real returned to George Clinton possession of four master recordings. The four albums, produced and recorded by Clinton under the name of Funkadelic, are "Hardcore Jollies," "One Nation Under A Groove," "Uncle Jam Wants You" and "The Electric Spanking of War Babies."

The decision gives George Clinton sole possession of the masters, returning them to their rightful owner after more than 15 years.

Judge Real concluded that George Clinton had been defrauded of his creative works, which involved the complicity of his former employees, a member of his former management team and his lawyers.
