Urban Outfitters settles with Navajo Nation after illegally using tribe's name; Guardian, 11/18/16

Nicky Woolf, Guardian; Urban Outfitters settles with Navajo Nation after illegally using tribe's name:
"Urban Outfitters reached a settlement with the Navajo Nation after illegally using the tribe’s name for a collection that included “Navajo hipster panties” and a “Navajo print flask”.
The lawsuit was brought against the fashion company in 2012, though it had used the name since 2001...
The tribe registered the name Navajo as a trademark in 1943, according to court documents."
