Somebody put something in Richie Ramone's contract

Crime - Law

Entrepreneurship

A U.S. District judge just dismissed a lawsuit filed by Richie Ramone, a former Ramones drummer. Richie wrote six songs for the rock band, including "Somebody Put Something In My Drink." And he is not getting any cash from Internet sales these days. But the judge said his contract contained language that made it clear that any future modes of music reproduction were covered.

Richie was asking for $1 million in royalties.
