You don't have an intellectual property claim over a work that isn't in any specific form or without an registration to your name.

The only basis that could help him make sense is if he had trademarked it before Peak Milk's usage. Otherwise, his lawyers are just stunting.


Modified: I see he trademarked the phrase. But lawyers know that you don't "trademark" anything that isn't related to concrete goods or products. The phrase, at best, is related to his comedy brand. It's not tied to any concrete product (that's being sold and/or bought). The copyright/trademark registration would thus be null and void. He lucidly has very little chances...

You intelligent by half. So you don't know comedy brands are product being sold and or bought?

You don't know I can buy your song and sing it as mine?

Abfinest007:
They will settle out of court soon it a strategic to cash out more money

Let them settle out of court by making him an official brand ambassador.
It was a wrong move to from Peak and Gala.

Wetin dem damage wey reach 1bn?

Exactly.

Don't insult people. You can make a point without insulting. Isn't that what it means to be civil? If you are intelligent, you should know this

A recorded song is in a form. It passes as a concrete product/intellectual property (even if it isn't copyrighted). That phrase isn't related to any concrete product at all. It's not in any form at all.

And, to correct you, comedy brands "are not products bought and sold." There's a pellucid difference between a product and a service. A good dictionary can help...

Was the intellectual property registered at the first place.....


Mumu

This is a Hooge amount of money demanded,
Las Las Na out if court settlement

You know... you didn't have to insult. You could make your point reasonably without needless insults.

Even at the registration, a copyright of the phrase is likely null and void, given that it isn't directly connected to any concrete product he sells or intends to sell. Copyright laws are only valid to the extent to which they relate to concrete products. Such a copyright registration would, in this case, be invalid.

This is person calm and well articulated in make his point without any insult. God bless you

Lastly, Sabinus would gravitate to out of court settlement which is marked by one year and six months supply of peak milk and 2 years supply of gala. In his secret chamber, Sabinus would fervently reflect how events will turn out if lacasera should follow suit in " something hooge.' Dreamily, he'd picture happy moments and scenes of having peak milk, gala and lacasera supply of their goodies.

What are you even saying? People trademark their business names and anyone who bears same names to their business name is liable for litigation. Beyonce trademarked blue ivy's name, lets see who has two heads to want to name their child that name, you will wish you don't. So far the job he is doing is to render services and a legitimate one at that, the court will definitely give him audience. See this one oo... God bless peak that the Judge is an ardent viewer of sabinus skits and always laugh his arse away whenever he watches his skit.

Sabinus won't see 1 kobo in this his voyage of stupidity. Go and write it down.
That trademark has been accepted for registration, it is not yet registered. When it is, he is given a certificate. Before he gets the certificate, it is published so that if anyone has an objection, the can come forward.
Sabinus is like a pregnant woman fighting another woman for beating the child in her womb.

Context is key here. A business name is a TOTALLY DIFFERENT ball game. Business is registered as a unique legal entity on its own.

The issue here is a phrase. It doesn't fall within the basic requirements for a copyright according Nigeria's copyright act. As per the trademark, Nigeria's trademark act only allows for trademarking things directly linked to concrete goods and products ONLY.

Beyonce trademarked blue ivy's name, lets see who has two heads to want to name their child that name, you will wish you don't.

The validity of that is even debatable in the USA. But we are talking about Nigeria now. We have our laws.

The court gives everyone audience. Anyone has a right to sue anyone on any basis. The audience is not the issue here.

It's just that Sabinus has nothing on Peak milk and Gala. The Nigerian copyright and trademark laws would not favour him in court. It's quite clear.
