Formally Lennon's with an image of the late John Lennon, member of the 1960`s Pop Group The Beatles for many years that had to change to Legends. Reasons was a legal dispute by Yoko Ono. A legal team had worked on behalf of Yoko Ono are attempting to tackle a pub in Dundee. Named in honour of the former Beatle, Dundee pub Lennon's now faces a battle to stay open. The establishment is a tribute of sorts to the singer and is decorated in memorabilia celebrating his life and career. However former owner Mike Craig recently received a cease and desist letter indicating that the name and all memorabilia would have to be altered. Yoko Ono's legal team are demanding that the changes be implemented within 14 days, leaving the lease holder little time to bring the pub in line with requirements. "It’s ridiculous" he told the Evening Telegraph. "The pub’s been called Lennon’s for about five years, but the signs will be removed this week." This is by no means the first time Yoko Ono has tackled copyright infringement. Perhaps the most notorious case involving the late singer's legacy involves Lennon Murphy. The relatively unknown performer was attempting to use the name Lennon as his stage name, but according to reports Yoko Ono stepped in to put a stop to this. Later, the Japanese artist clarified that she had not sued the singer - she merely stepped in after Murphy applied to the US trademark office for exclusive rights to the name Lennon for musical performances.
