Musicians Daryl Hall and John Oates, members of the band Hall & Oates, are currently involved in a legal dispute regarding their business venture, Whole Oats Enterprises.
Hall, after initial attempts to begin arbitration on November 9, filed a lawsuit and sought a temporary restraining order to prevent Oates from selling his stake in the company.
This restraining order was granted on November 17, temporarily blocking Oates from selling his share to Primary Wave Music until either an arbitrator intervenes or the order expires.
The specifics of the initial complaint and related court documents are sealed, as Hall's legal team argues that the matter is a private dispute with confidential terms, including a confidential arbitration process.
Neither Hall nor Oates provided a response to FOX Business' request for comment regarding the situation.
The legal dispute between the two started on November 16, with Hall filing a lawsuit against Oates in Nashville, Tennessee. Details of the lawsuit are confidential due to a court order, but it is categorized under contract/debt issues. A temporary restraining order in the case was issued on November 24.
Hall & Oates, a pop-rock duo formed in the 1970s by the pair, has not officially disbanded. However, both Hall and Oates have been pursuing their solo careers for several years.
Hall & Oates debuted with their album "Whole Oats" in 1972. Over the years, they have released a total of 18 studio albums and achieved six No. 1 singles. Among their most popular songs are "Rich Girl," "Maneater," and "You Make My Dreams." As recently as October 2022, the duo was still touring together, as reported by Variety.
