A judge has ended a legal battle between former members of En Vogue by granting two of the singers the right to use the girl group's name.
Bing: More on the En Vogue lawsuit
Cindy Herron and Terry Ellis have won permission to continue touring as En Vogue after taking legal action against the other pair of former members, Maxine Jones and Dawn Robinson, alleging they do not have the right to perform using the moniker.
Herron and Ellis demanded they be granted sole use of the name, as well as $1 million in damages, and a judge has now accepted their claim. The singers have won control of the name, but the judge ruled they did not qualify for any financial compensation, according to TMZ.com. All four singers were part of the original line-up of the R&B group.

all in all.. Cindy and Terry actually represent the sound of the group more so than Maxine and Dawn. I saw an interview where they recapped what happened between the members.. and they finally admitted that everything fell apart when Denzil Foster and Thomas Mcelroy.. the dudes who put the group together and wrote and produced all of the hits.. were pushed out of the picture by the label and the group. Funny thing is.. the label had been gasing them up telling them that Denzil and Thomas were jerking them on the money.. and they bought that.. and dropped the dudes that had brought them up from scratch.. and from there it all fell apart. Divided and conquered..

Yep, the LLC did it for them:

LLC stands for Limited Liability Company. Because it is not a partnership or a corporation, the owners of an LLC are not partners or shareholders, they are "members." Such companies are frequently labeled Limited Liability Corporations, but corporation is inaccurate and company is the proper term.



They still look good:
