Rap mogul Jay-Z recently won a ruling in an English court, barring a restauranteur from using the "Rockafella" name in business in the country. Jay-Z and British Chef/reality TV star Terry Miller were locked in court battle over the name, which Jay-Z claimed would confuse people into thinking the business was associated with his Roc-A-Fella brand. A British court previously ruled in favor of Miller, who was granted the rights to use the name for his catering business in the U.K. Jay-Z recently won an appeal of the ruling, when a higher court overturned the previous decision, claiming that enough similarities existed between the two names to prevent Miller from using it in trade.
