According to court docs, an L.A. jury awarded Steven Lamar a whopping $25,247,350 … after ruling the music moguls hadn’t paid him for design work he did on 3 models of Beats headphones — the Studio 2 Remastered, the Studio 2 Wireless and the Studio 3. Dre and Jimmy had previously argued Lamar was only owed royalties on the first model. Lamar sued and the jury agreed he had fulfilled his end of the bargain with the Beats honchos.
