The Charlie Brown Copyright Claim Against Dollywood Has Been Dropped

Two icons of entertainment are no longer fighting over use of a classic Charlie Brown Christmas song at Dollywood.

Federal court papers filed June 24 in U.S. District Court in Knoxville show Lee Mendelson Film Productions Inc. of Burlingame, Calif., and the Dollywood Company have agreed that claims by Mendelson against the Pigeon Forge company have ended.

The case can’t be resurrected, a federal motion states. Each side has agreed to cover their own attorneys fees and costs.
