This time, a Florida woman named <strong data-start=\"168\" data-end=\"188\">Kimberly Marasco<\/strong> is suing the global pop star, claiming that Swift has copied her work in several of her songs and music videos. According to <strong data-start=\"314\" data-end=\"326\">Newsweek<\/strong>, Marasco is seeking a hefty <strong data-start=\"355\" data-end=\"370\">$30 million<\/strong> in damages.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"384\" data-end=\"649\">Marasco has reportedly had a tough time trying to serve <strong data-start=\"440\" data-end=\"449\">Swift<\/strong> with the legal papers. In a motion filed on Monday, Marasco mentioned that Swift\u2019s out-of-state residence and her extensive security measures have made it difficult to get the lawsuit to the singer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"651\" data-end=\"1301\">The lawsuit claims that <strong data-start=\"675\" data-end=\"684\">Swift<\/strong> and her company, <strong data-start=\"702\" data-end=\"730\">Taylor Swift Productions<\/strong>, took inspiration from Marasco\u2019s work in several of Swift\u2019s albums, including <strong data-start=\"809\" data-end=\"821\">Folklore<\/strong>, <strong data-start=\"823\" data-end=\"856\">The Tortured Poets Department<\/strong>, <strong data-start=\"858\" data-end=\"867\">Lover<\/strong>, and <strong data-start=\"873\" data-end=\"886\">Midnights<\/strong>. Interestingly, Marasco, who is into \u201calternative rock\u201d music, says she\u2019s never even purchased any of Swift\u2019s albums. In fact, she only realized the alleged copying after attending <strong data-start=\"1068\" data-end=\"1085\">The Eras Tour<\/strong>, where she claims to have discovered the similarities. In her filing, she said, \u201cThat is when she discovered the infringement and went back to her earlier albums to check other songs since there were so many found.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1303\" data-end=\"1658\">This lawsuit is actually the <strong data-start=\"1332\" data-end=\"1347\">second time<\/strong> Marasco has taken legal action against Swift. According to <strong data-start=\"1407\" data-end=\"1419\">Newsweek<\/strong>, she had issues serving Swift the legal papers last year when she sued the singer, and Judge <strong data-start=\"1513\" data-end=\"1530\">Aileen Cannon<\/strong> dismissed Swift from the case. Marasco has given several reasons for the delays, including Swift\u2019s busy <strong data-start=\"1635\" data-end=\"1648\">Eras Tour<\/strong> schedule.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1660\" data-end=\"1900\">Back in <strong data-start=\"1668\" data-end=\"1680\">February<\/strong>, Marasco also filed a lawsuit against Swift\u2019s collaborators, including <strong data-start=\"1752\" data-end=\"1769\">Jack Antonoff<\/strong>, <strong data-start=\"1771\" data-end=\"1788\">Aaron Dessner<\/strong>, <strong data-start=\"1790\" data-end=\"1815\">Universal Music Group<\/strong>, and <strong data-start=\"1821\" data-end=\"1841\">Republic Records<\/strong>, though Swift is the only one who hasn\u2019t been served yet.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1902\" data-end=\"2017\">It\u2019s clear that this legal drama is far from over, and it remains to be seen how it\u2019ll unfold in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It looks like Taylor Swift is in the middle of another legal battle.
