  "account": "Dance music artist Sara Landry has filed a lawsuit against her former management company, The Night Department (TND), alleging that the firm continued to use her intellectual property and trademarks after they were terminated. According to Landry's legal team, the defendants prioritized their own financial interests over the rights of the artist. The lawsuit was filed on October 6 and is the latest development in a dispute that began in August 2025 when Landry fired TND, claiming they were betraying her trust. TND had countersued, stating that Landry had breached her contract by terminating the management agreement. The ongoing legal proceedings in the UK court will determine the outcome of the split.",
  "summary": "The lawsuit adds a new front to an ongoing legal war between the breakout techno artist and her former managers at The Night Department.",
