An insurance company that paid more than $2.8 million in claims after an arson fire damaged an historic Memphis music recording studio has now accused a rock music label company of fraud and wants its money back.
The Commercial Appeal reports that Hanover American Insurance Co. has filed a federal lawsuit against Tattooed Millionaire Entertainment, its owner Christopher C. Brown and two others – Daniel Mott and John Falls – in connection with the fire last November set inside the former House of Blues recording studio.
After examining receipts and bank records, Hanover, which is based in Massachusetts, says $10.5 million worth of recording equipment that it had insured didn’t exist. The defendants had said the arsonists had stolen the equipment.
The defendants declined to comment.
