T.I., Tiny & OMG Girlz Win $17 Million In OMG Doll Case
A California federal jury awarded Clifford “T.I.” Harris and Tameka “Tiny” Harris more than $17.8 million in the couple’s lawsuit against MGA Entertainment, which makes O.M.G. Dolls, AllHipHop.com reports.
According to Law360, the jury determined seven of the company’s O.M.G. Dolls infringed the trade dress and misappropriated the name, likeness, or identity of the OMG Girlz pop group T.I. co-owns.
It’s a huge victory for the couple, considering they initially lost the jury trial in May 2023. The jury reached its conclusion after six hours of deliberation over two days and found the infringement was “willful.”
They also agreed with the Harrises that the misappropriation was
“done with malice, oppression or fraud.”
The court will next decide punitive damages on infringement.
