Marley Family Plans to Sue Wireless Company

The Marley Family plans to sue Universal Music Group and Verizon Wireless for reportedly using Bob Marley's image and songs to promote their product without their permission.

In a statement they said, "This agreement was not in accordance with Universal Music Group and subsequently a lawsuit will be filed."

In response, UMG stated that they did not receive a suit from the family and claimed that a long standing contract with Bob Marley gives them permission to use his songs as ringtones.
