The local North Carolina restaurant What-A-Burger is facing a lawsuit from the Texas-based corporate chain Whataburger over trademark infringement and breach of contract.
The What-A-Burger #13 location in North Carolina is known for its unique Witch Doctor drink and burgers topped with chili and coleslaw, drawing loyal customers despite the legal battle.
Customers are concerned about the future of the family-owned What-A-Burger #13 as the lawsuit from Whataburger threatens the local business's ability to use its name and continue operating.
