Paul McCartney, because he wanted his father-in-law (Lee Eastman) to have the job.
When the Beatles were breaking up, Paul wanted to get control of his part of the Beatles. He'd thought he'd sue the manager - Allen Klein - but he was told he actually had to sue the other Beatles; he said he agonised for 6 months about suing his mates.
He didn't. Paul McCartney sued to dissolve the Beatles' business partnership, concerned that Allen Klein's management would damage them over time. (He wasn't happy about it, saying later "I felt like an arse, suing my best mates and being seen to sue my best mates.") At the time, the other Beatles were sold on Klein, and rejected McCartney's choice of manager, his new father-in-law Lee Eastman. Lennon, Harrison and Starr later soured on Klein, and the two sides sued each other, settling in 1977 with a payment to Klein of about £3.5 million. In the end, the other Beatles were thankful to McCartney, for "saving their legacy".
Allen Klein, the manager of the Rolling Stones in the late 1960s and early 1970s, was accused of exploiting the band financially. He negotiated deals that favored him and his company, often at the expense of the Stones' profits. One key issue was his management of the band's publishing rights, which resulted in the band losing significant income from their music. Ultimately, his contentious relationship with the band and financial disputes led to his departure and legal battles over their earnings.
No, it's two completely different things. I swear it!
