A legal battle between drag queen and environmental activist Pattie Gonia and California-based outdoor apparel giant Patagonia has burst into the public eye over a trademark dispute.
The legal dispute centres on whether Pattie Gonia, the stage name of activist Wyn Wiley, infringes on Patagonia's trademark rights. Although the company is seeking just $1 (£0.74) in damages, the case could have far-reaching consequences for Wiley's brand, merchandise sales, and future trademark claims.
