An award-winning movie company, a major motion picture production company, and a prominent record label were represented by Waller in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee in a case that has received national attention. The lawsuit was filed by a musical artist on the basis that a nationally-released movie and soundtrack allegedly infringe upon the singer's purported trademarks, violated a claimed right of publicity, and placed him in a "false light." A dismissal on personal jurisdiction grounds was obtained earlier in the case for the individual executive producers named in the lawsuit.
UPDATE: On May 23, 2012, in a 98-page ruling, the Court granted the Defendants' motion for summary judgment.
