Apollonia Sues Prince Estate Over Name and Trademark Rights
Apollonia (Patty Kotero), known for her role in 'Purple Rain,' has filed a lawsuit against Prince's estate, claiming they improperly attempted to claim ownership of her 'Apollonia' trademark, which she has used for over 40 years. She asserts her rights to the name and accuses the estate of bad-faith legal actions to seize her brand and identity, despite Prince's prior support for her use of the name.
