Boxill has claimed that he is in possession of a number of previously unreleased tracks that he and Prince worked on between 2006 and 2008. The estate was seeking court intervention to prevent the unauthorized release of these works. Boxill had until January 23 to respond to the estate’s motion, but they claim that he failed to do so. The estate is now asking the court to sign off on their victory. Unless Boxill can come up with a valid excuse for his failure to reply, the estate will likely receive an injunction preventing the release of Prince’s music.
