Sorry tony, if it was that great ,it would sell on its own, they wouldnt try and trade on the name? There is a hell of a lot of Great stuff out there, it needs marketing, a name and a lot of $ to make it work. As far as it goes, these guys are trying to take a shortcut , by taking advantage of a Brand name, that resembles their own

Correct.

The memo states that LFP has consulted a lawyer and that the nephews would be free to use the surname Flynt for a venture outside the adult entertainment industry
