Dispute with Katy Perry

the end section needs altering from:

Katie Perry has been sued by American pop singer Katy Perry in an attempt to prevent the former from using her name as a trademark since it is similar to the singer's [1]. Unlike the designer who uses her own name, the singer's stage name is not her birth or legal name.

No Katy Perry has not sued her, her management issued a deconfliction of copyright notice on her, so that the two 'brands' do not get confused. It is a business legal procedure and is not a law suit 86.149.9.236 (talk) 00:05, 26 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I had been looking into this, and sorted out the details a bit better... but it might be "original research" so I gave what is more easily accessible in the article.

In brief. Lawyers acting for the singer have applied to oppose a recently registered and accepted trademark, and this done not through the courts, but through IP Australia, who manages trademarks.

The history of the trademark dispute can be found using the search engines at IP Australia. Use the "ATMOSS" search engine at IP Australia, and look for trade mark number 1264761. You can login in as "guest" for searches. There's a history of the trademark there. It's rather abbreviated, but it all fits with the standard procedures described in a manual (available at the site). Basically, The "Katie Perry" trademark was submitted on 29 Sept 2008, and approved on 16 Dec. It was formally published on 29 of Jan (cited in the article) and then three months after that was the normal time span in which an opposition could be made to the trademark. The trademark was marked accepted on May 7; and a correspondence received May 8 from Katy Perry lawyers opposing the trademark. I think the time limit actually expired April 29. In any case, they then submitted an application for "extension of opposition", which is provided for in regulations. So what is happening is not a lawsuit, but a conventional hearing with IP Australia, as part of their standard procedures for managing an opposition to a new trademark. The hearing is on July 10, and I gather than this is to seek permission for the necessary extension of time for making opposition to the new trademark. (With any luck it will get knocked back.) —Duae Quartunciae (talk · cont) 03:18, 5 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not notable

This woman isn't notable. None of the sources are about her or her fashion, it's all about some 15 minute news story about someone who is actually notable. The news story looks like it was a misunderstanding as well. This is one of the sadder articles on wikipedia. 58.111.65.95 (talk) 04:44, 21 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There are far less notable people with Wikipedia pages. YOU, for instance.2600:6C5A:17F:FF1E:6178:7D17:9614:F4AB (talk) 16:42, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
