JACKSON, Mississippi (AP) — The son of the late Mississippi bluesman Junior Kimbrough has agreed with a record company to dismiss a copyright lawsuit over songs performed by the father and son.

Court records show that US District Judge W. Allen Pepper closed the case on Tuesday after both sides agreed it should be dismissed. There was no indication if a financial settlement had been reached.

Junior Kimbrough was best known for songs like "Sad Days Lonely Nights" and "Meet Me In The City." He died in 1998 at age 67 after gaining fame late in life.

His son, Kinney Lee Malone, sued in 2008, claiming Oxford, Mississippi-based Fat Possum Records was using the songs without his permission. The lawsuit, which ended up in federal court, sought at least $1 million and royalties.
