In early July 2001, Tsai's father Tsai Chu-chen sent legal attest letters to companies who had cooperated with Tsai in the past. The letter described the dissatisfaction of Tsai and her family to the company D Sound, including that D Sound didn't actually has the right to manage her business and short paid her. At the same time, Tsai's father said that he only wanted to clarify the contract with D Sound, and had no intention to sue D Sound. On the other hand, D Sound's manager Tso Ke-hui sent a legal attest letter to Tsai and her family on the grounds that they were involved in defamation.[37] After that, Tsai's father decided to suspend Tsai's business activities since August 20, 2001.[38]

On August 15, 2001, Tsai's lawyers Ting Hsi-cheng and Sun Shih-chun held a press conference together with Tsai and her family, and they unilaterally announced that Tsai ended the contractual relationship with D Sound.[39] Later, D Sound and their lawyer Chang An-chi also held a press conference, announcing that Tsai's unilateral early termination of the contract was a breach of contract, and they demanded Tsai a public apology and a total of NT$10 million in damages.[40] Meanwhile, Tsai Chu-chen pointed out that D Sound's manager David Wu had asked Tsai and her mother Huang Chun-mei to sign a consent after the Examinee Night Concert on July 10, 2000, the content of the consent includes Tsai authorized D Sound solely to sign all matters with Warner, and David Wu asked Tsai and her mother didn't tell her father.[41] Tsai's father later found out the consent and expressed his dissatisfaction with it, David Wu later agreed to withdraw the consent, but Universal Music Taiwan's music director Sam Chen persuaded Tsai to sign the consent again after Tsai turned 20 years old.[42] In response, Sam Chen issued a statement that the consent was a will without legal effect, and Warner would never cooperated with Tsai in the future, and he reserved the right to legal recourse of Tsai and her family's remarks at the press conference.[43] Later, David Wu released a letter to Tsai and her family publicly, and he said that he would not sue Tsai for the time being.[44]

In early November 2001, Tsai signed Angie Chai's company Comic Ritz, and then D Sound formally filed a criminal lawsuit against Tsai. On December 4, 2001, the Taiwan Taipei District Prosecutors Office held a court investigation. D Sound accused Tsai and her family of slander and demanded compensation of NT$27 million, while Tsai and her family pointed out that D Sound was suspected of embezzlement.[45] On January 21, 2002, Tsai and D Sound filed for arbitration respectively, and the contractual dispute was expected to be settled around June 2002. Tsai's father also said that he has applied to the Taiwan Taipei District Court for a provisional punishment, which was approved by the court and an execution order was issued. Therefore, D Sound should not prevent Tsai from inviting third parties to record and distribute music publications, film advertisements, and act in televisions before the arbitration ruling.[46] On January 29, 2002, D Sound filed a criminal complaint against Tsai again, alleging that Tsai's live performances at MTV Mandarin's Christmas party and TVBS-G's New Year's Eve concert in 2001 infringed on the recording copyright. Meanwhile, D Sound chose to make public the income statement related to Tsai to prove that the accounts were clean. On January 31, 2002, Tsai and D Sound attended the second arbitration tribunal.[47]

On June 4, 2002, the Chinese Arbitration Association Taipei ruled that Tsai had to pay D Sound a total of NT$9 million for only two years of the seven-year contract.[48] D Sound said: "The arbitration association's decision has cleared us of the charges that Jolin Tsai and her family had made against D Sound for breach of trust, embezzlement, and accounting irregularities." D Sound added: "D Sound is considering dropping the criminal defamation lawsuit against Jolin Tsai and her family. However, for the sake of protecting the rights and interests of the company, we will not revoke the criminal responsibility for Jolin Tsai's infringement of the recording copyright, because it involves intellectual property rights." Tsai's father said: "The arbitrator found that we have the right to terminate the contract, which means that D Sound had violated the trust and misappropriated the short payment."[49]
