    The White Stripes Royalties Trial Begins

    The White Stripes trial launched yesterday involving a producer who claims he deserves substantial royalties from the duo.

    Jim Diamond, the co-producer on the band’s 1999 eponymous debut and sound mixer on ‘De Stijl’, says he is owed royalties for helping shape the band’s career.

    Jack and Meg deny that they owe Diamond royalties and claim that he was paid the fair rate of $35 an hour for his time in the studio.

    The Detroit trial, presided over by Judge Avern Cohn, is expected to last about a week.
