Jellyroll vs. Jelly Roll: Pennsylvania Band Sues Country Star for Trademark Infringement


Jelly Roll is facing a trademark infringement lawsuit filed by Jellyroll, a longstanding Pennsylvania band that plays weddings and charity events.

Jelly Roll is facing a trademark infringement lawsuit brought by the leader of a Pennsylvania-based band that’s been performing at weddings and charity events under the name Jellyroll since 1980. The suit (highlighted in the Court Watch newsletter) was filed by Kurt L. Titchenell, who’s seeking injunctive relief against Jelly Roll to essentially stop him from using the name going forward. But the suit ultimately argues that Jelly Roll’s surge in popularity over the past few years has cut into Jellyroll’s ability to get their name out there and caused “confusion in the marketplace.”
