in 2001, deyoung sued his former bandmates, seeking the rights to use the group's name in support of his solo career, with the group being allowed to keep the name "styx" and deyoung able to use the name in descriptive phrases such as "the music of styx" or "formerly of styx" (but not "the voice of styx"). financial terms that young and shaw had to pay deyoung for ownership of the name were not disclosed.
