Jay-Z wins restaurant name battle


In an ongoing legal battle over the name of a restaurant in England,singer Jay-Z has won the latest round.

Chef Terry Miller over the name of his Rockafella restaurant in Newcastle had been filed suit by the singer Jay-Z.Singer claimed that the title would lead to confusion with his Roc-A-Fella Records music empire.

The U.K. trademark for the restaurant and food-branding name Rockafella had been granted to chef Miller by the court while Jay-Z was ordered to pay the cook's legal costs.

But the 99 Problems hitmaker appealed the decision and was handed victory during a hearing in London on Monday.
