Snoop Dogg, Pabst Settle Endorsement Dispute

Rapper Snoop Dogg and Pabst Brewing Co. have reportedly reached an
agreement to settle a lawsuit disputing a Colt 45® endorsement deal that
the rapper argued entitled him to a portion of the proceeds when the
brand was sold to Blue Ribbon Intermediate Holdings in 2014. Snoop
Dogg’s claims survived Pabst’s motion to dismiss in February 2016
and motion for summary judgment in August 2016. Details about the
motion to dismiss appear in Issue 595 of this Update. See The Hollywood
Reporter, October 7, 2016.
