Michael Jordan bags trademark case in China's top court


(MENAFN) China's Supreme Court has ruled in favour of US basketball legend Michael Jordan in a trademark dispute.

In detail, the People's Supreme Court ruled a Chinese sportswear company must stop using the characters for Jordan's name, read as Qiaodan in Chinese.

Qiaodan Sports registered the name more than a decade ago but Jordan's lawyers said it built its business around his Chinese name without his permission.

Jordan has welcomed the decision which overturns previous rulings against him.
