Report: Jay Z Wins Legal Battle Against Former Sound Engineer

Roc-A-Fella RecordsJay Z has won a legal battle against a former Roc-A-Fella sound engineer named Chauncey Mahan, who was claiming ownership of the rapper’s masters for The Life and Times of S. Carter and The Dynasty, reports TMZ.

Mahan filed a lawsuit against Jay Z and Roc Nation in July.  He wanted a judge to declare him a co-owner of master recordings of the albums that he worked on with Jay Z and Beanie Sigel between 1999 and 2000.

However, the judged ruled that Mahan waited too long to file a lawsuit in the matter.
