After almost 28 years of being a fan favorite holiday song, Mariah Carey‘s “All I Want For Christmas Is You” hit song will be the topic in court.

Carey released the song on her studio album “Merry Christmas” in 1994 and has been a constant hit during every Christmas season, but now she’s being sued for copyright infringement.

The lawsuit has been brought by songwriter Andy Stone who alleges he co-wrote a song with the same title five years earlier.

A complaint filed Friday in New Orleans federal court shows that Stone, who lives in Mississippi, is seeking at least $20 million in damages for copyright infringement and misappropriation, among other claims, from Carey and her co-writer Walter Afanasieff as well as from Sony Corporation of America and its subsidiary Sony Music Entertainment.

Stone, artistically known Vince Vance of the New Orleans country-pop band Vince Vance & the Valiants, co-wrote and recorded his version of “All I Want for Christmas Is You” in 1989, according to the complaint. The song then received “extensive airplay” during the 1993 Christmas season and “began making appearances on the Billboard Music Charts.”

What do y’all think? Does Andy Stone have a case?
