Former Coldplay Manager Files £10 Million Lawsuit Over Unpaid Commission

Coldplay's former manager, Dave Holmes, is suing the band for over $12 million in unpaid commission. Holmes alleges that the band reneged on a promised contract regarding their upcoming albums, on which he was due to receive a commission. He claims to have worked on the band's tours and managed logistics for the albums. Holmes is seeking a declaration that the contract is valid and payment of outstanding commission, or alternatively, damages for the work he has done. Coldplay has threatened to file a counterclaim.
