I stand corrected.
Although I don't know the details of Belden's problems. I know the
estate objected; whether they actually had a judge decide or whether
Belden et al decided not to go against the estate's wishes to avoid a
court battle is not clear to me.
It comes out to the same end, though.

I don't know about that -- the same thing happened with Bob Belden's
version of _Turandot_, which was never released due to objections from
the estate.

The only case that comes close is Jerome Kern's estate forcing
Maynard Ferguson to recall his recording of "Old Man River" because
they considered it to be tasteless, and they used the lack of formal
arranging permission as technical leverage. I'm not even sure the
estate would prevail in today's courts, as permission to arrange is
largely considered to be assumed when you pay the statutory
re-recording license.
