Michael Jackson’s death marks an exclamation point in a generational enjoyment of an extraordinary talent, which extended from the Jackson Five to the King of Pop. His legacy is the memories that each of us hold of the joy he gave to us in his performances and his musical recordings. The Entertainment And Sports Law Section of the Florida Bar extends its sympathy to the family of Michael Jackson and his close associates.

Sincerely,

Nina-Dawne Williams
Attorney at Law

Sports Law
By Brooke A. Wiener, J.D.
West Palm Beach, FL

The Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit has affirmed, in an antitrust case, that the exclusive licensing of all professional football teams marks to one vendor is not a violation of the Sherman Act.

NFL Properties is an unincorporated organization of 32 separately owned teams. Each team owns its own trademarks - team names, logos, slogans, etc. In 1963, the NFL created NFL Properties, Inc., a corporate entity to (1) develop, license, and market intellectual property that the teams owned, such as their logos and trademarks; and (2) "conduct and engage in advertising campaigns and ventures on behalf of the NFL and [its] member teams."
