Daryl Hall vs. John Oates: The Battle Over a Secret Business Deal

Daryl Hall accuses his former partner, John Oates, of secretly selling his half of their partnership to a company called Primary Wave, which Daryl does not trust. Hall obtained a restraining order to block the sale and claims that Oates intentionally timed the deal to coincide with the start of Hall's tour to cause him harm. Daryl is concerned about Primary Wave's reputation for exploiting copyrights and trademarks and wants the dispute settled in arbitration. He seeks a judge's intervention to block the sale.
