Fox News
Irving Azoff claimed Don Henley's "Hotel California" lyric pages were stolen by an author working on a biography about the rock band in the late '70s.
Azoff, a longtime music industry titan, admitted that Henley and Frey disliked the book's direction, and that "for me personally, all the stuff about the Eagles' break up was unacceptable," according to The Associated Press.

Henley is expected to take the stand and testify against Glenn Horowitz, Craig Inciardi and Edward Kosinski, who were charged with conspiracy in the fourth degree for allegedly attempting to sell manuscripts, including "developmental lyrics to the Eagles song 'Hotel California,'" according to the original indictment filed by the New York District Attorney's Office in 2022.
