Maryland Couple End Evanescence Lawsuit
According to the Pine Bluff Commercial, a western Maryland couple is ending their lawsuit alleging Wal-Mart deceived customers by selling a copy of the album "Anywhere But Home" by the rock group EVANESCENCE, containing explicit lyrics without parental advisory labels.
An attorney for Trevin and Melanie Skeens, of Brownsville, says the couple won't stop a Washington County Circuit Court judge from dismissing their complaint for lack of activity on Thursday.
The couple sued the Arkansas-based retailer in 2004, alleging Wal-Mart sold them a copy of "Anywhere But Home" knowing it contained explicit language. The couple said they bought the CD at Wal-Mart for their daughter's 13th birthday because they believed the company didn't sell uncensored recordings without warning labels.
The decision comes nearly 22 months after a judge refused to certify the complaint as a class action, which would have allowed anyone who bought the recording in Maryland potentially eligible for compensation.
