Starbucks Backs Off


Starbucks Backs Off, Leaving Rat City Rollergirls Logo Intact

posted by on September 18 at 15:00 PM

The Rat City Rollergirls have, by default, won a trademark dispute with the Starbucks corporation, and will not have to change their logo.

Back in May, Starbucks raised concerns that the roller derby team’s logo has a “very similar look and feel” to the Starbucks logo.

According to the RCR’s attorney, Quinn Heraty, Starbucks never filed an official objection to the Rollergirls’ logo, and their trademark inquiry has been terminated.
