The Battle For Chris Farley's Website
THR Esq. has a great look at the battle over the rights to Chris Farley’s online ghost empire. Make Him Smile, Inc., a company that claims to own the rights to Chris Farley’s estate, just a lost a court battle with a Bahama’s-based “cybersquatter” to take back the rights to Chrisfarley.com.
From THR Esq:
