Ed Sheeran has defeated a copyright infringement lawsuit involving his Grammy-
winning song "Thinking Out Loud" and the Marvin Gaye classic "Let's Get It On."

A Manhattan jury has found the musician did not engage in willful copyright infringement
following a trial that saw Sheeran playing guitar and singing in court.

The jury reached its decision after roughly three hours of deliberations.

Sheeran, seated at the defense table in a suit and tie between his lawyers, hugged his attorneys when the verdict was read.

"I'm obviously very happy with the outcome of the case. And it looks like I'm not having to retire from my day job after all," Sheeran told reporters outside the courthouse. "But at the same time, I'm unbelievably frustrated that baseless claims like this are allowed to go to court at all."
