Suno asks court to pause labels' second suit until key rulings in first case

What happened

Suno has asked a Massachusetts federal judge to pause the second copyright lawsuit filed by Sony Music Entertainment and Universal Music Group over alleged unauthorized use of songs to train Suno's AI music generator. Suno's strategy, as reported, is to await pivotal decisions in the labels' first, ongoing suit against Suno, which involves similar claims.

Context

The second suit, filed September 18, 2026, covers 60,202 recordings and targets Suno's v6 models; that filing is already covered as a separate item. Suno answered the second suit on October 20, 2026, calling its use fair use. The pause request is a new procedural step, not a ruling: as of reporting, the court had not decided whether to grant the pause.
