In what may be the oddest case of plagiarism litigation, John Fogerty was sued for plagiarizing himself. Fantasy Records owned the rights to Fogerty’s recordings with Creedence Clearwater Revival. Fantasy then sued Fogerty, claiming that the artist’s solo song, “The Old Man Down The Road,” plagiarized his track with CCR, “Run Through The Jungle.” Fogerty prevailed over Fantasy after he reportedly brought his guitar to the witness stand and convinced the judge the tracks were different.
