An attorney for hip-hop moguls T.I. and Tiny Harris on Tuesday told a California federal jury during opening statements in a retrial of their clients’ intellectual property dispute with MGA Entertainment that the company’s line of O.M.G. dolls allegedly stole their look and name from the OMG Girlz group. This marks the third trial in the prolonged legal battle between the entertainment world giants and MGA, the maker of popular collectible dolls.
The outcome of this trial could have significant implications for intellectual property rights within the toy and entertainment industries, particularly concerning the use of likenesses and brand names. For more details on the case and its background, click here.
