Pearl Jam's former manager Rickey Charles Goodrich has pleaded guilty to stealing over $300,000 from the band.

Seattle Weekly reports that Goodrich has admitted stealing massive sums of money from the grunge icons during his four years as serving as the chief financial officer for their management company, Curtis Management. 

Charges have now been filed against Goodrich, as he stands accused of stealing a total of $380,000 from the band (that's about £232,643).

It is reported that Pearl Jam hired a private detective to investigate their suspicions that Goodrich was pocketing extra cash, when it was revealed that he had made several wire transfers to pay off his own substantial debts. 

The band are yet to comment on the case, which remains ongoing since Goodrich was prosecuted back in June. 

Meanwhile, Pearl Jam's 2014 UK tour dates are as follows:
Tuesday 8 July - Leeds Arena
Friday 11 July - Milton Keynes Bowl
