Mickey Leigh's lawsuit against Linda Cummings-Ramone alleges she is exploiting the Ramones' legacy for personal gain, highlighting the ongoing tension over the band's intellectual property rights.
The legal battle underscores complex ownership issues in Ramones Productions, where both parties hold equal stakes but fundamentally disagree on the use of the iconic band's trademarks.
Alan Fisch notes that Ms. Cummings-Ramone's 50% ownership does not automatically confer her unrestricted rights over the band's intellectual property, emphasizing the intricate nature of their partnership.
The rivalry between Leigh and Cummings-Ramone reflects the historical conflict between Joey and Johnny Ramone, suggesting deeper personal stakes are involved beyond business disagreements.
