A tale of two women and one name

Ms. Taylor, the owner of Katie Perry, a loungewear company, launched legal proceedings back in 2009, alleging trademark infringement against Ms. Perry for selling clothing through eight channels that were found to be “substantially identical or deceptively similar” to Ms. Taylor’s trademark, according to the courts.
