Michael Cohen interviewed in nightly news regarding NBA player Victor Wembanyama’s trademark infringement lawsuit.
NBA player Victor Wembanyama, a rising star with the San Antonio Spurs, has filed a lawsuit against an Austin man for using his name and likeness without permission. The legal action comes after Wembanyama’s image was reportedly used to promote merchandise, including T-shirts, without his consent. The lawsuit seeks to protect his right of publicity and prevent further exploitation of his name and likeness for commercial purposes. Michael Cohen commented that the case highlights the growing importance of protecting a celebrity’s right of publicity in an era where unauthorized use of personal images for commercial gain is increasingly common. Wembanyama’s legal team is pursuing damages and an injunction to stop the unauthorized use.
