Katy Perry files appeal in case against Australian designer Katie Perry

[River 106,418]

Katy Perry has filed for an appeal in her lawsuit against an Australian-based designer selling clothes under her birth name, “Katie Perry.”

Katie, who goes by the name Katie Taylor now, sued the “Last Friday Night” singer for trademark infringement due to the merchandise she sold for her 2014 Australian tour. In April, the judge found the music artist guilty of breaching the designer’s trademark with the clothing sold at her shows. Justice Brigitte Markovic asserted that Katy did use the name “in good faith” and therefore did not have to provide personal compensation to the clothing maker. With that being said, Katy’s company Kitty Purry was required to pay damages.

Now, Katy is filing an appeal following the judge’s ruling.

Taylor also reflected on the emotional impact the trial has had on her. She told The Post about how the “Dark Horse” singer’s fans have sent her hate online. In addition, she spoke about how she was reportedly forced to read emails between Katy and her team where the singer called her a “dumb b***h”.

consequence of having an unremarkable stage name. i expect a lot of other artists with very common names are caught up in them but just dont attract the publicity

I just feel like ppl shouldnt be able to copyright their Mom-given common ass government names. Think about how many Michael Smiths and Maria Garcias there are out there... what if 1 of them thought they could claim all the rights to use their own dang name

Reminds me of when the kardashians were in a legal dispute with a bakery for wanting to trademark the bakery restaurant

The kardashians won but apparently the bakery owners were distant relatives lol

If you don't want other people to compete under a similar name, maybe think of a more creative and unique name

Well you're not wrong, this has dragged on for many many years now I think. Then she also had that nun situation and I think Dark Horse lawsuit. But that's about all that comes to mind

I mean, the designer seemingly sued KATY for selling KATY PERRY merch on her (KATY PERRY) tour. 

How did that “dumb b***h” win?

She trademarked Katie Perry in Australia to sell clothes before Katy Perry got there and did the same thing with a "substantially identical or deceptively similar" name.

Why is she always coming for less fortunate people? The nuns, the veterans, and now this?

Katy Perry, a famous popstar who has gone by that name since 2005 and was releasing hits for months before this trademark was somehow approved, shouldn't have to accommodate for this lady, and should be allowed to sell her own merch Katie only did this lawsuit for a quick check and she has no right to complain about the displeasure of Katy or her fans

I feel like all rich people and people in general are fake, they pretend to be all about kindness and love and stab people every chance they get.

I sometimes hate celebs. Myself included
