Billy Bob Beats Bubba

When Billy Bob first sued Bubba, Billy Bob won a 142,000 dollar judgement. But a judge ruled that Billy Bob didn't fill out the paperwork properly. Fortunately for Billy Bob, the 7th circuit court of appeals (after consulting with Austin Powers) has reinstated the award. So the makers of Billy-Bob Teeth, worn by Mike Myers in his Austin Powers movies, have been upheld in their claim that Bubba Teeth infringes on their copyright/trade dress. And threw just such oddball suits is America made safe for capitalism.
