But according to new details in the lawsuit Andy Summers and Stewart Copeland have brought against Sting, things haven’t gone according to plan. In their lawsuit, Summers and Copeland claim they are owned “arranger’s fees” on income earned from the “digital exploitation” of the group’s catalog. The origin of their complaint goes back to the group’s initial agreement at the time that they formed. Sting’s lawyers called the new lawsuit “an illegitimate attempt” to reinterpret that agreement. He considers his contributions to "Every Breath You Take" substantial enough that he has said he deserves co-writing credit for the song.
