SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Feb 1 – Giannis Antetokounmpo
is suing a business called
Nomercy50 for infringing the
trademark to, what else,
"Greek Freak." But he is suing
for only $9,000.
On
February 1, U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York
Magistrate Judge Katharine H.
Parker held a proceeding.
Inner City Press covered it.
But the defendant failed to
appear.
Judge
Parker asked the requisite
questions about attempted
service of process.
The surprise was
the low value of the case, to
be pursued by a plaintiff with
a large NBA contract. But
money is money, apparently.
The case is
Antetokounmpo v. Searcy,
20-cv-5055 (Koeltl /
Parker)
