A popular Philadelphia-area wedding band that has held the trademark on Jellyroll since 2010 is upset with Google searches leading people to the country artist Jelly Roll as his popularity increases, according to a federal lawsuitNow the band is suing the singer in a lawsuit filed in United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania on April 8, 2024.
Jason Bradley DeFord started using the Jelly Roll nickname at gigs around the time of 2010, according to the lawsuit. In March DeFord applied for the “Jelly Roll” trademark for use on clothing, In the suit, the band contends the singer's recent fame is confusing people and is also pushing them lower down in Google searches.“Prior to the Defendant’s recent rise in notoriety, a search of the name of Jellyroll on most search engines, and particularly Google, returned references to the Plaintiff,” the suit states.
The band, through an attorney, asked the country singer to stop using the name with a late February cease-and-desist letter.
