Wiki to the rescue:
On October 8, 2005, Cohen alleged that his longtime former manager, Kelley Lynch, misappropriated over US $5 million from Cohen's retirement fund along with the publishing rights to his songs,
[9] leaving Cohen with only $150,000. Cohen was sued in turn by other former business associates. These events placed him in the public spotlight, including a cover feature on him with the headline "Devastated!" in Canada's
Maclean's magazine. In March 2006, Cohen won the
civil suit and was awarded US $9 million by a Los Angeles County superior court. Lynch, however, ignored the suit and did not respond to a
subpoena issued for her financial records.
[10] As a result it has been widely reported that Cohen may never be able to collect the cash.
[11] Cohen has been under new management since April 2005.
