Katy Perry has filed for an appeal in her lawsuit against an Australian-based designer selling clothes under her birth name, “Katie Perry.”
Katie, who goes by the name Katie Taylor now, sued the “Last Friday Night” singer for trademark infringement due to the merchandise she sold for her 2014 Australian tour. In April, the judge found the music artist guilty of breaching the designer’s trademark with the clothing sold at her shows. Justice Brigitte Markovic asserted that Katy did use the name “in good faith” and therefore did not have to provide personal compensation to the clothing maker. With that being said, Katy’s company Kitty Purry was required to pay damages.
