Trademark Fight With Jay-Z

In April 2010, rapper and producer Jay-Z and his business partner Juan Perez initiated a trademark infringement case against Big Papi's night club 40/40 located in his native Dominican Republic. The suit claimed that Big Papi's night club name was chosen to take advantage of the fame of the record producer's chain of sports clubs. The term 40/40 in baseball refers to the ballplayers in the Major Leagues who have both 40 home runs and 40 stolen bases in a single season.

Famous quotes containing the word fight:

    And everybody praised the Duke
    Who such a fight did win.—
    But what good came of it at last?
    Quoth little Peterkin.—
    Why that I cannot tell, said he,
    But ‘twas a famous victory.
    Robert Southey (1774–1843)
