Kristian Bush of the country duo Sugarland must join lead singer Jennifer Nettles in testifying next month in lawsuits over August's deadly Indiana State Fair stage collapse.

A court order made public Tuesday says Sugarland attorneys must provide possible dates between April 2 and 13 when Bush and Nettles can give depositions on the events of Aug. 13, when high winds toppled a stage and rigging before the duo's concert, killing seven people and injuring dozens of others.

Sugarland spokesman Allan Mayer said Sugarland attorneys have complied with Marion Superior Court Judge Theodore Sosin's order and provided dates when Nettles and Bush can be deposed. He said Sugarland had no further comment.

The testimony will focus on whether Sugarland resisted delaying the start of their concert despite threatening weather.
