Marr's statement explained that he sought to protect The Smiths' legacy and trademark since it wasn't owned by the band, emphasizing collaboration over unilateral action.
Marr directly counters Morrissey's statement about the reunion offer, asserting he declined the proposal and clarified there are no plans for a different vocalist to join.
In January 2024, Marr demonstrated goodwill by offering joint ownership of the trademark, which remains pending Morrissey's signature, indicating a willingness to collaborate.
Marr rebuffed Morrissey's claims by asserting that he acted to prevent exploitation of the band's name without consultation while emphasizing that he had valid reasons for his actions.
