Ki Fitzgerald and Owen Doyle, two original members of the boy band Busted, are to appeal after a judge rejected their claim that they were owed millions of pounds in unpaid royalties.
Both Fitzgerald and Doyle claim to have written songs for the band alongside eventual Busted members James Bourne and Matt Willis before being sacked by the groups record label.
Prior to Busted, the four musicans performed together under the band name Termites.
Mr Justice Morgan, who dismissed their case, questioned the pair's reliability as a witnesses in court, reports the BBC.
A statement released on behalf of both men said that they would now be recredited as “original co-owners” of a number of Busted songs, including 'What I Go To School For'.
Busted, who eventually launched with frontman Charlie Simpson, split in 2005.
