China based apparel firm files case against Apple for copyright infringement

New Delhi, Dec 27 (KNN) China based clothing enterprise KON in a recent engagement has filed a lawsuit against tech giant Apple under the aegis of copyright infringement.

KON in the suit has claimed that Apple’s logo that it uses for its official App store is a replica of the clothing firm logo. In this regard, the clothing firm is demanding a monetary compensation of over 15,000 dollars along with a public apology from Apple.

Both KON and Apple’s app store logo are of a triangular design, responding to which KON claimed that they look almost same if seen by an untrained eye.

The law suit by the firm is accepted at the Dongcheng District People’s Court in Beijing and the plea is under review. (KNN/ DA)
