According to court documents obtained by Complex, the judge who dismissed the lawsuit found it lacked merit and determined there was good reason to deter people from filing baseless claims against the superstar.<\/p>\n<p>The <b>December 23 ruling<\/b> ordered <b>Andy Stone<\/b> and <b>Troy Powers<\/b> to pay the singer <b>$92,303.20<\/b> in sanctions. Several thousand more were ordered to be paid to other individuals involved in the case, bringing the total tab to nearly <b>$110,000<\/b>. This marks another victory for Carey, who first defeated a similar lawsuit in <b>March 2025<\/b> when the court granted her motion for summary judgment.<\/p>\n<h2>The Disputed Song and Plaintiff Claims<\/h2>\n<p><b>Stone<\/b> and <b>Powers<\/b> claimed that their 1989 song titled <b>&#8220;All I Want For Christmas Is You&#8221;<\/b> was copied by Mariah Carey when she released her iconic version in <b>1994<\/b>. They alleged their version received extensive airplay during the holiday season of <b>1993<\/b>, placing it before Carey&#8217;s recording.<\/p>\n<p>The men were going after Mariah for at least <b>$20 million<\/b> in damages as part of their copyright infringement and unjust enrichment claims. This wasn&#8217;t their first attempt either. <b>Stone<\/b>, known professionally as <b>Vince Vance<\/b> of the band <b>Vince Vance &amp; The Valiants<\/b>, had previously filed a similar lawsuit in <b>2022<\/b> that was dropped after five months. The latest action represented his second attempt to challenge Carey&#8217;s ownership of the title.<\/p>\n<table style='width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;margin:20px 0'>\n<tr style='background:#f4f4f4'>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd;font-weight:bold'>Legal Timeline<\/td>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd;font-weight:bold'>Event<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd'>November 2023<\/td>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd'><b>Andy Stone<\/b> and <b>Troy Powers<\/b> file copyright lawsuit against Carey<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style='background:#f9f9f9'>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd'>March 2025<\/td>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd'>Federal judge dismisses lawsuit in Carey&#8217;s favor<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd'>December 23, 2025<\/td>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd'>Judge orders plaintiffs to pay <b>$92,000+<\/b> in sanctions<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style='background:#f9f9f9'>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd'>Total Sanctions<\/td>\n<td style='padding:12px;border:1px solid #ddd'>Nearly <b>$110,000<\/b> including payments to other parties<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<h2>The Song That Keeps Giving Year After Year<\/h2>\n<p>Mariah Carey&#8217;s Christmas anthem continues to dominate the holiday season and the music industry. The <b>1994 hit<\/b> recently achieved its <b>21st week at number one<\/b> on the <b>Billboard Hot 100<\/b>, extending a previously set record and solidifying its status as a timeless classic.<\/p>\n<p>The track remains on an incredible run, accumulating <b>78 weeks<\/b> on the Hot 100 chart overall. This surpasses <b>Dua Lipa&#8217;s<\/b> &#8220;Levitating&#8221; as the longest-charted song ever from a female artist. Co-written and produced by Carey with <b>Walter Afanasieff<\/b>, the song has sold over <b>20 million copies<\/b> worldwide and earned an estimated <b>$100 million<\/b> in total royalties throughout its lifetime.<\/p>\n<blockquote style='border-left:4px solid #3498db;padding-left:20px;margin:25px 0;font-style:italic;color:#555'><p>\n&#8220;Mariah Carey may have some extra Christmas cash this year because the judge who dismissed a lawsuit filed against her over her popular Christmas song just ordered the folks who dragged her to court to pay her more than $92,000 in sanctions.&#8221;\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p style='font-size:0.9em;color:#666;margin-top:-15px'>\u2014 <b>TMZ<\/b>, Music and Entertainment News<\/p>\n<h2>Annual Earnings and Industry Impact<\/h2>\n<p>Beyond the legal victory, <b>&#8220;All I Want for Christmas Is You&#8221;<\/b> remains <b>Mariah Carey&#8217;s<\/b> most lucrative asset. The <b>Queen of Christmas<\/b> earns an estimated <b>$2.5 to $3 million<\/b> annually in royalties from the song alone, according to data from <b>Forbes<\/b> and <b>The Economist<\/b>.<\/p>\n<p>When the song first dropped in <b>1994<\/b>, Carey made <b>$60 million<\/b> in initial royalties. However, the track has only appreciated in value over <b>31 years<\/b>, adding millions to the singer&#8217;s wealth every single year through streams, radio spins, and licensing deals. Industry estimates suggest the song generates approximately <b>$9.1 million<\/b> in royalties from <b>Spotify<\/b> alone based on streaming data, making it the highest-earning Christmas song on the platform.<\/p>\n<h2>What This Victory Means for the Holiday Icon?<\/h2>\n<p>The December ruling serves as vindication for <b>Mariah Carey<\/b> and her co-writer during one of her most triumphant seasons. The timing is particularly poignant, arriving just as her iconic Christmas track hits peak streaming during the holiday rush.<\/p>\n<p>This legal victory reinforces that <b>&#8220;All I Want for Christmas Is You&#8221;<\/b> belongs exclusively to Mariah Carey, putting an end to further copyright challenges. The sanctions imposed are meant to discourage frivolous litigation and protect artists from baseless claims. As the <b>singer<\/b> continues to dominate holiday charts and earn substantial royalties from her timeless masterpiece, this court decision adds another chapter to one of the most successful Christmas songs in modern music history.<\/p>\n<h3>Sources<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><b>TMZ<\/b> &#8211; Breaking entertainment and celebrity news coverage<\/li>\n<li><b>Complex<\/b> &#8211; Music industry
