After the two were introduced by Rogers, Arnold married singer Roger Miller.[4] After The First Edition disbanded, Mary toured and recorded with Roger until his death in 1992.[3] After his death, Mary became president of Roger's musical trust. In 2004, she sued Sony/ATV Music Publishing to regain the rights to Roger's music. She won in district court in 2010, gaining the rights and $900,000 in damages.[5] However, the verdict was overturned upon appeal, and Sony retained the rights to Roger Miller's catalogue.[6][7]
