The lawsuit by the Naked Cowboy against candymaker Mars has been settled. Terms are undisclosed, the filing of a stipulation of dismissal with prejudice a sorry fig leaf over this tawdry affair.
UPDATE: This Naked Cowboy is seems to be the black-hat kind: He went and sued some little lady called the Naked Cowgirl. But according to this thorough treatment by someone’s trademark attorney (with all due respect, not, contrary to his suggestion, mine*), she’s ready, able and willing to shoot back.

I’d like to see that, let me tell you. Man. Nearly 100%!!
Anyway, it’s all good. Anyone who goes through the trouble of slamming Legal Zoom in a special dedicated section of his blog can’t be all … green.
