Supreme Court weighs in on Jack Daniel's trademark dispute with dog toy company.

The US Supreme Court is hearing a case between Jack Daniel's and VIP Products LLC, a company that made a dog toy resembling the whiskey bottle. Jack Daniel's claims the toy infringes on its trademark, while VIP Products argues it is a parody and should be protected as free speech. The case centres on the Lanham Act, which prohibits using a trademark that can cause customer confusion, and the US Constitution's First Amendment, which protects forms of parody and satire as necessary aspects of free speech. The Supreme Court will likely issue its decision in June.
