David Ortiz - Trademark Fight With Jay-Z

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:

    A good cause can become bad if we fight for it with means that are indiscriminatingly murderous. A bad cause can become good if enough people fight for it in a spirit of comradeship and self-sacrifice. In the end it is how you fight, as much as why you fight, that makes your cause good or bad.
    Freeman Dyson (b. 1923)
