Ruling Due Monday in Apple Vs. Apple Case
An AP newswire article, via Yahoo! News, reports that:
A High Court judge is due to rule Monday in the legal fight between Apple Computer and the Beatles' Apple Corps record label over the use of the apple logo.More here.
Apple Corps Ltd. is suing Apple Computer Inc., claiming that the U.S.-based computer company has broken a 1991 agreement in which each agreed not to enter into the other's field of business.
The British company, started by the Beatles in 1968, argues that Apple Computer has infringed its territory by entering the music business and is seeking to force Apple Computer to drop its apple logo from the iTunes Music Store and pay unspecified damages.
Apple Computer claims that the 1991 agreement allows it to use the logo because it does not own the rights to the music, but simply the digital technology to distribute it.
