The Four Tops win British case
From the Associated Press
Motown icons the Four Tops won a legal battle in London Friday when a British judge ordered a rival group to stop using the band’s name.
High Court Judge Nicholas Warren ruled that singer Viscount Oliver Miller must stop performing and recording under the name Viscount Oliver’s Legendary Four Tops. He also ordered Oliver to pay damages, at an amount to be determined.
The Four Tops’ British lawyer, Adam Robertson, said Miller had never been a member of the Four Tops and had never recorded with the band.
