Singer Vanessa Carlton’s noise complaint against R.I. neighbor ends up before state Supreme Court

Published on April 3, 2026.
Grammy-nominated singer Vanessa Carlton and her husband, John McCauley, have been in court over their Warwick, Rhode Island, neighbors' "maddening" noise. The couple had won a preliminary injunction in 2024 after alleging that the owners of an industrial property next door subjected them to unlawfully loud noise and harassed them by filming their house. The injunction was challenged by the abutters, Artak Avagyan and Lee Beausoleil, and their tenant, North American Crane & Rigging LLC. Despite the injunction, neighbors claimed the noise hasn't stopped. The state's Supreme Court has yet to rule on the noise injunction appeal.
