Excerpt:A co-founder of Burning Man, the annual six-day festival of self-expression that culminates in the torching of a 40-foot effigy on the salt flats of northern Nevada,is suing his ex-partners.
John Law, who helped transform a series of small bonfire parties on a San Francisco beach into a phenomenon that drew more than 39,000 last year, sued Burning Man board members Larry Harvey and Michael Mikel in federal court on Tuesday.
Law's suit seeks to strip them of ownership of the event's name and logo and to place rights to the trademark in the public domain.
Kat's Comment:
The guy's name is John Law. We should always obey John Law, or he will arrest us, or so I have been told.
