Don’t mess with Brando

Ashley Furniture Industries is sleeping with the fishes, or the legal equivalent.

In a recent suit against the furniture company,  the estate of Marlon Brando was awarded $356,000 on its claim of trademark infringement after Ashley Furniture used the “Brando” name on a line of furniture products.
